In Flames

Held down, strangled and abused.
Cut down to half a member.
Left with his hand tied.
Everything points in the wrong direction .
All the joy disappeared.
The negative has penetrated.
Once he was in control.
What’s left, the faintest laughter.
We’re out of focus.
We’ve lost control.
I blame our ego,
and you call me names.
You’re told that you’re trapped below
And dark signs help to prove
You got to reach further
