I keep crying about how they locked me up
They prescribed me pills and now my head is fucked
And they said it was a remedy
But isn’t that always the way with history
You can say with hindsight
That people are full of shite
When they pulverise your bones
Just because they want to take you home
And he was sitting there in his suit
As I watch the world pollute
His frame of reference
And my lack of deference
Only incites their barbarity
And he said that that is not the treatment for me
But I still fear the dread
And I think about it as I lie in bed
What have they done
And if I really am the One
Shouldn’t I be able to get down from this cross
If I really am the captain then why is the ship lost
To the dashings on the rocks
And if it’s all people taking shots
And not listening to the truth I pour
Or the man that I adore
Somewhere far across the ocean
In a chasm of emotion
What am I doing this for
If every foreign shore
Is just a repeat of the same old sand
And I see the underhand
In all their dealings
The criminalisation of feelings
And the talk of non compliance
It is a form of violence
Because why should I have to tic tac toe
Just so I can be something you know
Just so I can be terrain that you’ve mapped
But I just feel like I’ve been knee capped
And tortured by the powers that be
All because of mistaken identity
And that dude said ambiguity
But I am clear on what I’ll be
And there’s none of you that have a hold on me
Not ultimately
Only in the scene
I take a breath and wake the dream
