Caught in a prison
Of flesh and bones
Living in a world
Oh, so wrong
Someone turned the tables
And now it’s gone
I can’t see the light
Or the end of the night
It’s all tangled twisted
And tied in knots
The smile that I see
Is an angry smile
All I wanted to hear
Were loving words
From a friendship-torn
To a lover’s scorn
Caught in a prison
Of flesh and bones
Caught in the squalor
Of being stoned
(: Caught in a prison 🙂
(: Caught in a prison 🙂
Caught in a prison
Of flesh and bones
Through the bars of these eyes
Freedom and beauty
These are things that
Don’t belong to me
They say how it should be
I struggle with how it could be
We’re turning this gender
Bender to obscenity
You see the world as
Black and white
Everything else we’ll
Earn with a fight
Caught in the flesh
Of humility
You want to humiliate
And pontificate
Caught in a prison
Of flesh and bones
It’s so absurd
And tangled in me
Caught in a prison
Of flesh and bones
Twisted to the heart
And the soul of me
(: Caught in a prison 🙂
Caught in a prison
Of flesh and bones
