Lyrics for Blisters

I felt like I was in a cage My body was numb, my head was fixed just right Too sacred to speak for fear of what cuts me like a knife It's a leech on my soul Draining my blood and leaving me cold Left with angry deflections of the feelings I have sold Leaving me cold Weekly bleeding in this factory Takes everything away from me One way out that I can see This is what you have made for me Factory Tied to a cage to slave my life away Openess makes me an easy prey I buy the drugs to kill the pain That this shit causes in my brain Obedience to this tomb to which I was bred Force-fed their lies, I'm choking on what I was fed Destruction fills my head When I wake to this day that I dread.
