Stranded

Im stuck in a jail cell without any bars
My nights pitch black; cant see any stars
Im stuck in traffic; but there aint no cars
Drunk in my head; never been to bars

Im stuck in a rowboat without an oar
Winds twirling me around; my heart is sore
In the far-distance I can glimpse the shore
But alas there no water anymore

Im In a desert; a sandy sea thats in flame
Out of my mind; feels like im in a game
Where Im outta health but who can I blame
The shadow in the corner; Mr no name

Im in a cave; the entrance is outta my sight
The shrouding darkness covers any shred of light
So distracted; cant find my left or right
In this weakness; i find my only might

Its in this state that I realize what I gotta to do
Have to make a plan just so that I can go through
And get out this pitfall that I had fallen into
It only can be done when you follow your heart; thats true

Its when im like this; all confunded and confused
That I dont know the truths that I have always pursued
Its the explanations that I tend to have refused
Because in the past my minds been abused

By all the corruption that plagues the world on all levels
Listening to Satan as he rejoices and revels
In his success of turning men into personal devils
Theyre there for his leisure; like skipping pebbles

My minds behind a fence of a fanciful fantasy
I see whatever I wish; whatever it is that pleases me
Inmy time of regret for giving up the one and only key
To my soul and letting me know I'll never be free

Its in this cage that I must always try to survive
But I know that here my soul will never thrive
Its the hope for a future that pushes me on; the drive
To keep on going and allow me to strive

I yell in agony; echoes are all I ever recieve
I take'em as answers but thats when Im decieved
My worries grow and I am never relieved
But in giving up I have never believed

What can you do when there is no gate out
What about when you're sick of yells and shouts
There is no other option; no other routes
All this has built up on my doubts

What can you do when youre stuck in cell
With nothing but mirrors so I can see me yell
A fire burns that no water can ever quell
How long will I live only time will tell

Quicksand around my ankles; now up to my knees
Its up to my chest now; stop it now please
When will this torture ever cease
When will it stop in its place and freeze

Too late; im already frozen; stuck in a blizzard
Just like magic cast by a wicked wizard
Trying to change me into a dragon or a lizard
Trying to replace my beating heart with a gizzard

The curses he cast are making me erratic
Hes staring at me; his face is all emphatic
It works like a charm; like automatic
It stopped me in my tracks; I become static

I was stuck; I had been paralyzed
Done to me by those I had always despised
But that was never ever a surprise
After all; they want to hear my cries

I was shocked like a man in cold water
Who was shot doen by his own daughter
A victim; born as gun fodder
Is is just me or thingss a whole lot hotter

Yep they are im stuck in a fire
Tied up to my own flaming pyre
I hear the yells from the town crier
Hes says theyre burning me; a liar

But I stand here; crazy for freedom
Im hoping to God that they dont decieve him
Ill be free; free from this fiefdom
Free from my prison; cuz Ill defeat'em
