Prisoner

You hear me now
I'll bring you to life
Listen up
What I say is right
I know you fear
Making your own mistakes
Enjoy while it lasts
All you do is wrong
'Cause you don't know better
But I'll save you
Save you from yourself

I'll tell you something more
All your life, you've hated me
But it's ok, you'll do just as I say
I'll catch you if you fall
So leave the talking to me

I'm your best friend
Just keep telling yourself these lies
Drop down on your knees
And worship me
Lowly prisoner
Don't look at your master
A thousand lashes for your insolence
Listen to me
This is all for your own good

Who are you, to call yourself my master?
Look at the way you can't control yourself
Don't you know
Your castle is made of lies
Just waiting to catch fire

You made me silent
But I'll make you scream
And "help me", it's just a word
But I'll teach you what it really means

You made me look the other way
Now I'll light you up for all the world to see
Branding the sky with my signature of flame

So you taught me all you know
But I learned nothing, except to trust myself
As your heart breaks, so do the shackles upon my mind
Never again will I be your
Prisoner
