Caged Coffin
Metallic bars surround me
Locked and secured
Unbreakable
The cold feel of the cage
Stuns my body
Numbing my mind
Panic arises within my gut
Causing dillusion
The cage is closing in on me
Cutting away at my breath
Trapped
I scream a blood curdling cry
Hoping someone can hear it
Hoping someone will follow it
The only way to survive
Is to be released from the outside
The bars are closing in
Crushing each bone
As if they were simply twigs
Too easily i break
Too late to be saved
Accepting the inevitable
My eye lids close
Soaking in the darkness
Embracing the anguish
Of each snapping bone
My cage is my coffin
Bound together
Even in the afterlife
Locked and secured

The cold feel of the cage
Stuns my body
Numbing my mind
Panic arises within my gut
Causing dillusion
The cage is closing in on me
Cutting away at my breath

I scream a blood curdling cry
Hoping someone can hear it
Hoping someone will follow it
The only way to survive

The bars are closing in
Crushing each bone
As if they were simply twigs
Too easily i break
Too late to be saved
Accepting the inevitable
My eye lids close
Soaking in the darkness
Embracing the anguish
Of each snapping bone
My cage is my coffin
Bound together
Even in the afterlife
