that chirping sound

wake up to the same day
every day
put on that
submissive mask
be what you're supposed to
do your part weirdo
no questions asked
just focus on the task

we're nothing but cogs
kept in the dark
living a total blackout
wondering about
that chirping sound of freedom
searching for reason

is life even real
or just a joke to kill
a dream too far
trapped in a jar
