1000 Days

In a way I remember your face
Staring through a pane of clouded glass
All my pain embodied by you
Locked away like your morality

You've created a monster
All I am is what you left behind
1000 days between me and my life
And all this time I've been broken down
Beaten by all these people like you

In a padded cell, there is no justification
For all the things that you've done
And in a moment I'm back
In the place where I'm left
Every day's longer than the last

I can tell the light is fading
I can't help but feel the tension

This is damnation
Voices of insurrection against my mind
Prayers plagued by some revocation
This dislocation
Whispers of insurrection against my life

They've taken everything from me
Taken everything from me

Blinded, I wait in blackness of night
Only to be met by silence
Counting the days
Until I'm free of this place
But the day never comes

Still through these days of helplessness
I wait for you, beyond the night
I'll still be here waiting for you

1000 days between me and my life
Hands of time move in mockery
"Hold onto hope" I tell myself but
How can hope exist in this place?

Still through these days of helplessness
I wait for you, beyond the night
I'll still be here waiting for you

You were never coming for me
You were never coming for me
You were never coming for me

This place won't hold me down
I'll be the one to break away
This place won't hold me down
I'll be the one to break away
