Frustration

When all those around you
build a maze to blind you
its so frustrating
like I'm trapped in a cage
and the key is to be insane
so this madness will end
and I can live my life again
free but fractured and broken
I can't help but think
that all the good you say you've done
was just a ruse to get me to play along
you really want me gone
and I'm here thrashing and flailing
in this cage I'm in
I won't let them win

Killer write. Aptly titled.
