They came and took me



They came and took me..
Next thing I know I was strapped into this strange entrapment…
My body was shaking and I couldn’t breathe…
They took me to another room where everything was back in time…
The echoes would not echo if you know what I mean??
The pumped me with something I don’t know ?!!
Took me by surprise when I awoke it was real!!
The marks are all over my mind and the scars lay deep..
Dark , darker than I ever had  felt or seen…
I couldn’t see what was going on.. but I felt something burning inside of me..
The only thing I tasted was metal and paste..
I don’t know why? But that’s what it was…
Did I just get taken for a ride only in my mind?! Did anyone else ever experience what I did? Am I the only one that is going out of his head?!
Billions of pieces scattered all around…..
Or is my mind is jut trying to pick  up the pieces of my mind?! I scream nothing.. is it all in my head?! I know what is real , but right now I can’t feel anything…. Please let me be free !!! I need to be free!! I don’t want this anymore!!!
I just need to be me! Be free!! I can’t help myself.. I’d rather sit in filth and decay.. just to be free… I’m talking freedom of a different kind… just to be happy…. Set me free !!!  Set me FREE!!!
