Of the miserable years
In the entrapment within my own home
It's driving me to insanity
What have I done to deserve this?
It's not fair to watch them
The people laughing and walking
And playing and talking
And jostling and gawking
And all I can do is silently watch them
As the clock ticks away.
That infernal clock that has so long ago
Stopped it's steady beat
But I hear it in my head still.
I'm trapped, you'll see
I'm trapped two ways
Inside my home
Inside my mind
I'm locked in a chamber with no keys
There is no way out.
I'm shunned and ridiculed
Tormented and soulless
Dead and dying
And that clock continues to tick away
As if there's nothing wrong!
As if it's mocking me with no words!
Soundlessly as hear the tick in my head
And my head alone!
There is nobody!
There is nothing!
And the window I look through for freedom
Only drives me madder!
I'm sick and frustrated
I'm livid and unhinged
I've changed from who I once was.
And that clock again!
Oh how I despise that clock!
Ticking away like my life!
Like my freedom!
Like my time!
Like my mind!
Stop, stop,
Why did you do this!?
Why is this happening to me?
What did I do?
What did I do wrong?
Tell me so I can fix my mistake
I will do anything
Everything!
Please, I'm going down
I can't make it
I can't continue on
I won't
I can't
I'm too far gone for that.
And whatever I did
I'm sorry
I'm sorry for doing wrong
Whatever I've done
I'm sorry, I'm sorry
I'm sorry a million times!
Just please set me free
Give me my life back
The shadow of life I once knew is fading away
Forgive me for my mistaken
For whatever I've done to deserve this
Father, brother,
Whomever corners me now
At least close the curtains
So I may forget what I have not.
A/N: Aiieek! My first dramatic TKAM story, and only second one of them all in that book. Yeeks, tell me what you thought about that one. I'm not usually this dramatic, honest.
