In chains, locked in a cage.
Behind bars, overcome with rage.
Armed with nothing, a ball and a chain
they hold me here, I've got nothing to gain.
Entranced, sorrow devours my soul.
My heart aches, my head hangs low.
My mood is morbid, heat dissipated across my neck
hatred is boiling rapidly in the pit of my stomach.
The life I live, isn't life at all
When I try to walk, I only fall.
I stumble into reality, anguish captivates my being
A prisioner in my own flesh,
is life really worth the living?

Many thanks to all of you. YES life is worth living, it's just that sometimes, you arent able to realize that because you are so blinded by hate and rage and other emotions... making it impossible to see anything that is good. Only bad shines through. But I DO realize that it's worth it. Again... many thanks!!
