spiders


You let them control you
Like a puppet hanging from strings
They tell you to live
They tell you to die
They tell you to be everything
Except to be who you are

You live in their dreams
Strive in their dreams
You shove away reality
And destroy your whole being

They say they know you
So they analyze you
And they crumble you down

They say they understand
So they give you their shallow advice
And you follow at their command

You shrivel inside
Your soul raging, screaming
Yet you sit still,
Not really knowing what to do

You can't escape the hands
That tortures you
That prods you deep inside

It all seems unreal...
It all seems faked
Because you still live in their world
Your prison, your ordeal
