Inside Me

Inside Me

if anyone could see my pain
they'd surely shed a tear
I'm screaming out in silence
a voice they do not hear
would anybody save me
if they had to face their fear
or is it just my prison
that I look on in the mirror
a device designed to torture
the things that I hold dear
until the guilt regret and sorrow
are finally to severe
that I just escape the prison
that trapped me on this sphere
one thing is for certain
the end is getting near
I've spent my life in prison
and no one seems to care
