The Monolith

Break the silence if I may? If I may? What is the meaning of this cage? Of this cage? (What?) You're killing me day by day. By day. Cut me with this. Brand me with that. I'm overwhelmed, in the corner of darkness, When I realise there's no walls. I'm grappling, wrestling with my demons. As the advocate to them calls. I blame you for it, I blame you for everything. I'll hold you to it, Behold your own reckoning. (Brave taker. I hate and fear you). I'm waiting for gravity to bend, Eyes wide open hoping the stars grow up from the ground. The stars grow beneath this town. I'm soaring over particles of sin, Hands tied, knee deep in something teaming of afterlife, Get it out of my sight. Play the martyr if you must. If you must. Pulling the tongue out of the mouth of my trust. Watching my body falling in. Growing rust. Kill me with this or I'll end you like that. *Click* I'm overwhelmed, in the corner of darkness, When I realise there's no walls. I'm grappling, wrestling with my demons. As the advocate to them calls. Ahhh... Break the silence if I may? If I may? What is the meaning of this cage? Of this cage? (What?) You're killing me day by day. By day. Cut me with this. Brand me with that. I blame you for it, I blame you for everything. I'll hold you to it, Behold your own reckoning. (Slave driver, I leave behind, I'm bracing brand new.) Ohhhh. (It pulls you underneath, like nothing you've ever seen). Ohhhh. (It pulled me underneath, this is not my usual dream). I'm waiting for gravity to bend, Eyes wide open hoping the stars grow up from the ground. The stars grow beneath this town. I'm soaring over particles of sin, Hands tied, knee deep in something teaming of afterlife, Get it out of my sight.
