I'm trapped in a cage
and its shell is power
Bars of treachery,
emotionless steel
Not content with that
Dirty mother fuckers
Control the way that I feel
With a lone hour glass
placed in the middle
of my transparent prison
I sit and occupy myself
My own greatest enemy.
Propaganda personified
polluting the brain
And all I can do
is sit and stare at the grain
They say time heals all
I doubt that it's true
'Cause if it is medicine
I've become addicted
Checking its face every two seconds
As the hands clasp at my throat
