Prison

It would only take one match
and a tank of her favorite gasoline
her heart it raced like hell
from the kick of her being the pyro queen
her mask it hid it well
everyday was Halloween
they couldn’t tell the difference
they thought she was squeaky clean
her heart was old and weak
her body young like seventeen
her mind was complicated
intricate like most machines
she thought that what she saw was real
with nothing in between
and then she put her hands to the floor
This house is a prison
release me from these shackles now
this house is a prison
someone burn this prison down
I’ll lock you up
keep you in chains
you’re not getting out
shhh don’t say my name
I’ll lock you up
keep you in chains
you’re not getting out
shhh don’t say my name
her heart was old and weak
her body young like seventeen
her mind was complicated
intricate like most machines
she thought that what she saw was real
with nothing in between
and then she put her hands to the floor
This house is a prison
release me from these shackles now
this house is a prison
