Hey! -Hope everyone is doing good, whenever you're reading this. I wrote this about an hour after I got off of the UBW, yesterday morning. It's titled, "Involuntary Confinement", and it's about how I feel like a prisoner to myself, the past, the present, and ridicule from, seemingly, everyone who knows me in person. But it's mainly about the reason behind why I feel this way. For a long period of time, I made the genius decision (not really) to stop socializing with just about everyone. Now, I find that when I start speaking (mainly in person), I honestly have trouble "shutting up." It really sucks, because it's nearly to the point where it's unusual, though underneath all of it, I'm still just me. So... Here's what I wrote:
"Involuntary Confinement"
I'm tempted by the hammers.
I wanna' nail myself shut.
But that repetition
could bring me back into the
pattern I was in.
Though I feel trapped inside,
to wander off again
could trigger the start of my demise.
I never wanted to
exit hell just to live in a prison cell.
(Chorus):
That is where you'll find me
sitting still.
The hand-cuffs that confine me (confine me),
feel so tight. I think my wrists are bleeding.
Everything before
has brought me here, and I wait.
I'm living in a fever.
The air in here is unhealthy.
I need an antidote.
It's getting tough to breathe.
I scatter in my skin.
I'm not sure where I reside.
To enter seperation, again,
could release me from the hands of time.
I never wanted to
leave the dark just to sit beside this door of bars.
(Chorus)
(Short to Moderate Interlude)
(Bridge):
It's my fault,
though I never signed up,
and I'm innocent.
The crime was against myself.
I failed to consider the consequences.
Now I'm locked inside...,
without the key.
(Chorus)
(Outro):
to leave...
I wait
to leave...,
and I wait
to leave...
I wait.
I'm waiting.
-Impatiently waiting...

I hope you all enjoyed this one. I'd also like to ask a favor, though it's not out of desperation. I ask, because I really do enjoy hearing what all of you think. So, if you could maybe search through my posts, and find some of the "un-noticed" songs, and let me know your views or criticisms of them, that would be cool. There's no rush. I just thought I'd ask now, because in two days, I'm leavin' to go on a trip (not too far), and I'm pretty sure I won't be able to post anything more than replies, if that. I just don't yet know the circumstances. I wouldn't even ask this (to all), it's just some of the songs that went down the list too quick were some of the more important ones to me. Still, if you can't, I can deal with that.  You all take care! I may not be posting too much, for a while, after tonight, overnight. Thanks; Later! |
