Glass Box

I am locked in a cell Condemned by my own words They have escaped me They have guilted me I am trapped in a glass box Making it nearly impossible for anyone to see See that I'm being poisoned by my own thoughts It camuflages the emotions that daily look for an escape My glass box doesn't protect It's controlling It's selfish I find no escape The unspoken words want to be said They are forced into the black hole created by my mind Scared into a decision they didn't want to make They are pushed back by the thoughts of definite integrals and alkynes My words fear escape Their demands are ignored by THE MAN They want to flee They need to come out They ask me for help I can't I'm THE MAN I forced them into a corner I created the dictatorship inside my head I put up the bars in my cell Crystal brick by brick I isolated my thoughts They have no escape They will stay trapped forever And I will suffer in my glass box
