Mental Confinement

Another day behind these walls Another voice inside my skull

I built a cage I cannot see

And gave it every part of me

The doors are locked,

the windows sealed

I can't escape the things I feel

I hear the footsteps in my head

Of everything I thought was dead

I feel the pressure closing in

Another war beneath my skin

But something's breaking deep inside

I won't surrender this time Mental confinement!

I'm buried alive in my mind Mental confinement!

I'm leaving these walls behind I've been locked inside for too long

In a place where I don't belong Mental confinement!

I'm breaking out this time (break

out!)

I know the cracks,

I know the seams

I know the lies that feed my dreams The chains are tight,

but I can feel

The rust beneath the iron peel

A thousand thoughts against the door But I won't feed them anymore

I feel the walls begin to shake One more hit and they

will break

I feel the pressure closing in

Another war beneath my skin

But something's breaking deep inside

I won't surrender this time

No more walls! No more chains!

No more living Inside this cage!

You had control! You had the key!

But you don't fucking OWN

ME! (aaaargh!)

Mental confinement!

I'm buried alive in my mind Mental confinement!

I'm leaving these walls behind I've been locked inside for too long

In a place where I don't belong Mental confinement!

I'm breaking out this time
