These thoughts have claws
Tearing this world into pieces
To see what’s underneath
Until everything’s severed
And all bonds are cut through
And nothing’s left to hold onto
Trapped and caged
Wild animals
Not to be released
Tamed and staged
Wild animals
Not to be unleashed
These thoughts have jaws
Grinding on the shackles of reality
Trying to bite through everything
Until all fangs are dull
And every tooth hurts
And the emptiness unfurls
No one’s meant
To be this way
No one’s meant
To be anything
