As Treatment Drags On
As treatment drags on.
This confinement we do not find fond.
Alive I shall be, as I live in this prison.
They will release me soon, after the evil in me has risen.
There is no one that will take me back.
I shall allow the pain to swell, and for my nightmares to attack.
I shall soon be freed into the forest.
I shall find new scars each time I rest.
I am waiting in the wild, but please don’t assume…
That I wish to go back to my old tomb.
