it

it has caught me, ripping me apart 
somehow I knew from the start 
and still, I went forward 
hoping I could change a heart

I was stubborn going ahead
imagining I can better the bad
yet I've lost my head 
in the devious process instead 

I followed my ethics every day
thinking it was the right way
but it has caught me today
and I'm afraid I won't get away 

what a shame, what a shame 
my days are all the same
every one of them so lame
goes by as they came

I'm a prisoner of my own mind 
dragging my chains blind 
I left everything behind
even my fights have resigned 

my wings are broken 
my dreams stolen 
and floating around as an evil omen
the gates of hell await wide open

finally, now I can see
there's no lighting up with glee
no ever being free
as life has caught up on me
