I know somewhere beneath my metal shell There are wings, waiting to spread I find myself jammed between mountains I never meant to start a war I just said what I said so that I could Feel like I was something more I found myself jammed between oppression I ripped myself a brand new hole So I could remove the tin can That they gave me for a soul I didn’t want a VCR for a mouth Or a number on my neck I wouldn’t let you stick another tape in Or control my life with the prick Of your super control pin Are we really living or are we just giving Back what they put in I know somewhere beneath my metal shell There are wings, full of thorns |

"I never meant to start a war I just said what I said so that I could Feel like I was something more" i know the feeling, slience can be a killer within yourself, but it sucks when you get it out and ww3 starts, anywasy good write "in a past life i was a woodcarver's knife: the sharpend blade of a wood cutter, the eldest son of the chief's brother: a maker of drums" |

Thank you all for your posts. The wing thing was just a metaphor for hope. It's like there may be hope somewhere beneath my metal shell, but that hope is dangerously damaged. Thanks again, you're all so wonderful. |

wow, um. This is amazing. There are almost no words to describe how well done this was. I like the robot type feel. I see a lot of metal and greys. It was an excellent write, that I will safe and read again and again I'm sure. Thanks. |
