Sanctuary

on dawn of the day I arose to the thunder again

the pounding in my head

it doesn't seem to phase me

how every scream the pretend not to hear echoes through me

standing, complacently waiting

I try to tell myself

our lives are worth more than this

so give me a chance to take it all back,

I'll show you that I'm worth more than your pittance or pity

it's a spit in the face

so don't even try to explain

the earth shakes beneath my feet

and as these buildings

they crumble around me

I call out if you can hear me

come and let me out,

oh please break me out!

and give me sanctuary

you know this whole world knows

you won't be satisfied 'til you fill up another cemetery

it's all a game to you

we won't be fooled by you into thinking that it's easy,

nobody said this would be easy to swallow or process or fake

and dark will be the day when I elude their desires

no longer will I be..
