Games
Trapped in a life that would never trap a soul
Hanging up the curtains, for I would rather feel cold
I've turned to many places and listened what was said,
But it seemed that life was only meaningful to the stupid and the dead
So I will live threw all the numbness and I will try and feel pain
I guess that there is no one to get mad at when I am the only one to blame
Numbness is a pleasure that I never want to have
For you take away my feeling and there is nothing to be had
Running life in circles oh I hope I find the end
For traveling is useless when you know what's around the bend
I close my eyes and see darkness it's the darkness that's inside
But not everything is mine to have so for this I take my pride
I walked up to the ocean and the ocean said to me
That it could be wise to look for freedom, but it is wiser to be free
Oh "How do I find freedom" is what I called back to the waves
When in search for what I'm looking for I have made myself a slave
Well the ocean she fell silent and she never answered back
So I will head on down the river to find all that I lack
It's sad, but almost funny, how I do this just to me
I guess I'll keep on moving in my circles to be free
