Confessional - Atena

I am trapped here

I don’t know where

Silence, take me

Far away

Do you hear the voices?

They speak to me

When my limbs move without consent, it must be them

I’m not like the others, and they all know

I’m not myself, I’m alone, I need help and they all know

You’re all

So suppressive

Thoughts so infected

No words to explain it

It’s like I’m trapped in your shame

I’m all that’s to blame

I can’t be contained

I keep hoping there is life outside of here

I see freedom seeping in through every tree

I won’t stop until their voices let me be

I can’t ever answer what is wrong with me

I am trapped here

I don’t know where

Silence, take me

Far away

Can’t you hear the voices?

They speak to me

I’m not myself, I’m alone

I need help and they all know

I’m counting sins, losing track of every deed I’ve done

Sorry brothers, sorry father, who it may concern

Bread and wine won’t help at all

For how I’ve been and seem

It might be hard, but try to hear

They speak to me

I keep hoping there is life outside of here

I see freedom seeping in through every tree

I won’t stop until their voices let me be

I can’t ever answer what is wrong with me
