Undercut

Why am I trapped in this soiled flesh?
Where memories and emotions refuse to mesh
Why do healed scars continue to bleed?
How long until my caged mind is finally freed?

I've been through heaven
I've been through hell
Every point in-between
Locked in this shell
My soul remains a deeply stained slut
This is my life, though undercut

Freedom for me is a distant place
My life is nothing without disgrace
Abhorred trust can drown out the sane
Death and Life are most times the same

I've been through heaven
I've been through hell
Every point in-between
Locked in this shell
My soul remains a deeply stained slut
This is my life, though undercut

I sold my pride for a chance to stand
I was slapped, but I can't name the hand
The season has changed, and I don't ask why
For time is life’s way of saying goodbye

I've been through heaven
I've been through hell
Every point in-between
Locked in this shell
My soul remains a deeply stained slut
This is my life, though undercut
