No Escape

There's no escaping this place
Where they crush your dreams
Keeping you locked up
Things are ripping at the seams

They give you hope
Enough to make you stay
Then when you are too strong
They take it all away

They take out their anger
On you and you alone
But you never complain
Because they slap you when you moan

Don't try to escape
No, they won't let you out
They will gag you
So no one hears your shout

No one to talk to
So lonely you'll be
I wish someone
Would come save me

Anger, sadness
They boil inside
I've tried several times
To run and hide

But they always pull me back
And hit and gag me more
It's only six feet away
But I'll never touch that door

I want to scream
I want to run
I want to escape
I grab a gun

In the shower
I play roulette
Never again
Will I have to fret

No more pain
No more crying
I wonder how they would feel
To know I was dying

Their slave bleeding out
In the bathroom of their house
They can't make her feel small
She no longer is their mouse

I turned the walls red
Made the water bleed
As I pour blood out
I don't cry over my deed

A silent prayer I say
To the lord above
Forgive me for I have sinned
Because for me they did not love

As darkness rings my vision
Covering it with a veil
I finally feel happiness
I will prevail

It's completely dark now
No more light reaches I
This is the last night
That I will ever cry

I always thought there was no escape
A way out I wouldn't find
Who would have thought
That the way to escape would finally come to mind
