My windows have been shut
No light to show me the way
I'm spread out on the floor
Downhearted... No spirit in my eyes
The doors to my freedom are closed
There's no escaping this desolate place

The music box inside my chest hums a lonely tune
Its insipid rhythm forms a sad picture when I close my eyes
It's just me and my music box in this cold room
I'm barely aware of the world turning around me
I am motionless

My shattered face lay beneath the torn sky
I'm a wounded bird never to take flight.
I wait to wither and die
cover my ears so they may not hear what's left of a mournful melody
The windows are sealed to suffocate and put to sleep the linger of a fractured beat
