April 1 [#1]
All you do is stick me with pins and needles
I kneel and oh, I'm ever so graceful, oh

Falling down to my knees, it's
humiliating and it's suffering
Leave me, leave me, because I
Can't leave you
Leave me, leave me, your poison's
got me under your [REDACTED]

Axis and Allies, what does it mean
Sides are a construct of defunct means
You win me over with explanations
You drown me out with your expectations
But it's suffering and I can't take it anymore
I feel the blood running out in my veins
I feel the sun rushing out of my soul
The moon comes to me for warmth
It hears my pitiful cries when the tides comes out tonight.

Let me be free
Don't tie me down
With your Values and
Convoluted compromises
Because you can't tie me down
I was meant to be free in this
Lost and forgotten world
Forlorn is my destiny
In this forgotten world.
