Emotional Overload

my freedom has been taken away from the beautiful things i cherish if im unable to give my love to you my heart will surely perish these walls have faces and they're laughing i have no serene view i lay awake, tears burn my face my only thoughts are of you i'm hiding behind my fears pretend im not in pain but im hurting, god im hurting i go to the chapel and pray i have never believed in you GOD cause of all the s--t ive been through just an image in a cloud but that day i talked to you i think maybe im going bloody mad this place makes you that way commit the crime, do the time isnt that what they say in the wagon on the way i bit my nails till they bled im rocking back and forth biting into my own flesh behind your f----g doors the screws would yell out 7.30 night time lock up thats when the tears come flooding out i have entered the unknown im not liking what i see strange faces just staring welcome to my reality murder,drugs, non payment we're all in here for what to mess our heads up even more a feeling we are left to rot this place holds too many memories we fake our few smiles im spoken to but im not listening many crying like a child this place is full of evil but no one even cares taking one day at a time too many so unprepared if anyone were to ask me what its like to be inside i wouldnt want to tell them for themselves they'd have to find
