Hi. Here are some lyrics I'm working on. They're not amazing, or finished, but I'd appreciate some constructive critisicm. A monkey in a cage with a pen and a page, Kept hidden out of sight, never to see the daylight. Though every hateful day, he watches his decay, He channels his spite into the words that he writes. I am the heart beating in your ribcage. I can freeze the blood flowing in your veins. I keep the show running from the backstage. I can tear asunder all that was made. Though the sun is denied, he sits with eyes open wide, In a vision defined by countless fates entwined, And watches the demise of those fiends in disguise. His body is confined, but they’ll never tame his mind. You sit above mocking those below, You’re at the peak of a slippery slope, Your disease will not continue to grow, You’re bound to be hung with your own rope. A defiant creation, born in isolation, Expands, swells and grows, finding all of those Who sense the vibration, cry out for salvation, And dying from their thirst, are defied to their worst. We are a legion of those you betrayed. We are the means to the end of your ways. We are putting numbers on your days. And we can never be kept within a cage.
