Snake Oil

This edict dictates the mind will stay in a creative state

I’m not a scholar but I’m pretty sure

You’ve earned the right to keep creating

I cannot breathe, I cannot speak

Please let me leave or let me sleep

There’s no leaving here. Never

Please tell me the benefits of keeping me locked up

Maybe if we tried hard working together

We’d escape insanity forever and ever

I took a look outside my window

I painted wings and tried to fly

Closed my eyes and I jumped

Imagination ran dry

I took a look outside my window

I painted wings and tried to fly

Break me out from this fictitious life

This edict dictates the mind will stay in a creative state

I’m not a scholar but I’m pretty sure you’ve earned…

Don’t let me die like this

What else can I paint when I’m watching skylines

What is this crimson?

Blood is much redder

Please expand this room

I’m just waiting here

I’m just pacing here

I’m just wasting here

I took a look outside my window

I painted wings and tried to fly

Closed my eyes and I jumped

Imagination ran dry

I took a look outside my window

I painted wings and tried to fly

Break me out from this fictitious life
