Blurring my vision.
So, I can ignore the composition.
Of their melodies and tunes.
A burden that's given.
By my glorious disposition.
not lies.
And I died.
I died and now I'm manifesting the decomposition.
Of my eyes.
So, I wouldn't see what I've become in my own reflection.
In the mirror whose silver has dulled.
And faded from all shine.
I can't call for peace.
Cause I haven't even tried.
I float like helium.
Inflated by substances, I'm a balloon.
I fly high, my kindness, with a film running under me.
Starring me as a lead.
A favorite protagonist.
And I only want freedom.
Of all the alliances.
That're keeping me here.
But it's the only way, I fear.
So, I stained my lines with stillness.
The lines of the script where I'm supposed to act.
And I tamed my voice with silence.
With everything I got and had
I couldn't lift a finger.
I couldn't bat an eyelid.
I couldn't wake up.
Or dream, and I drank the poison.
Of deciding to sleep my life as a whole.
I focused on my might, and wisdom alone.
As I was rotting in sadness.
The sadness capsulated in the prison.
The prison I saw every time.
I blurred my vision.
