I’m lost in a place I know so well
But there is nothing that I fear
Lost in a place I call my own
Do I own it or does it own me
A square to communicate with the outside world
A glowing square consumes my life
I spend staring staring at this glowing square
Experiencing life through moving pictures
There is nothing in my life
I’m too attached to this glowing screen
I’ve built this prison with my own hands
I’ve built this prison with my own time
It follows me every where
My own voice telling me you’re safer where we are comfortable
The place I’m comfortable is where I started building my prison
But then it learned to move
I know how to look for people not to worry
But this prison is getting stronger
Stronger than I will ever be
These walls tower over me
But now I’m scared of my prison
For no one should be alone
It’s hard when the only company you have is yourself
Harder when the only company you want is yourself
Made to relive things in my past
This in a prison of my own making
But how do you escape your mind
My master is my distraction
A glowing square that can rest in my lap
I can look at it for hours and the picture is never the same
Tearing me down only to build those walls higher
To walls are so big now they have become my body
And I am trapped in a dark corner
But I did not want to be hurt
I thought the walls would protect me from others
But the walls trapped me with the person that knows me best
That knows everything that tares me down
Knows what I don’t want to hear but say to myself everyday
Trapped in a prison of my own making
Where I am the prisoner and tormented
And the guard and prosecutor are me
For the greatest hell is in your own mind
And I have trapped myself in hell
