These Four Walls
I look all around me
I see nothing
But these four walls
These four walls that bind me
Day and night
I am surrounded
I cannot leave
I cannot stay
My world is just beyond the walls
I can see forever in my mind
I can reach new heights
But when I look up I am completely closed in
Not a crack to let in the light
No sign of life
Totally surrounded
The four walls
Closer
And closer
They are moving in
I cannot make a move to stop them
I close my eyes
I try to escape in my mind
The walls are close enough to touch
There is little air
Won't anyone save me
Bust down these walls
Break away my binding
Release me from holding
I wish to be free
The walls are crushing me
I can barley breathe
I can't feel my legs
My arms are going numb
Life is leaving me body
I've been souring in my mind
I've flown far
Farther then I have ever gone
I have almost reached freedom
But I'm getting tired
Everything is getting dark
I am so close
When everything goes
Black
And quiet
I didn't make it...
