Show Me

show me 
me the way 
way out of here 
here, my hell, 
hell everywhere and anywhere 
anywhere I would rather be
be alive and well, 
well, what do you say? 
say the words 
words to unlock 
unlock my cage 
cage crowding around me, much too small, 
too small, I can't breathe 
breath is gone forever
