THE PRISON CELL These walls make me see delusion Lonely in my cell, I need to howl But I get beaten up Full of fear Is my heart still beating? I need to howl But I get beaten up I try to kill myself The light is hurting me I need to howl But I get beaten up My skin is scratched bloody I smear the blood on the cell walls I need to howl But I get beaten up The light that never goes off Incessant hum that never dies I need to howl But I get beaten up These walls are built for you So you don’t see us

You are helpless Darling let’s not fight I haven’t forgotten, How deep your love is for me

WALKING THE SILENT WALK 1.: Walking the silent walk The Pain is stored in numbness The world has faded away All that is left is this emptiness Lonely is the silent walk Lonely is this silent talk Lonely the violent memories Lonely and I do know why 2.: Talking the silent talk The scream is far too quiet The world has faded away All that is left is this emptiness Lonely is the silent walk Lonely is this silent talk Lonely the violent memories Loneley and I do know why
