The way is paved
I dug my grave
The shadows here
And they surround me
I’m not afraid
I’m just scared
My hands shake
So’s the world around me
There’s no light
No escape
And people wear
Smiles are fake
Here in a cage
Now filled with rage
Tears don’t break
They fall; I fail
Unloved, unloved
Unmoved, unmoved
