Obey

You’re walking dead
The fallen walls no longer hinder you
Still you’re so spineless to leave
The shadow whispers
“Embrace me and stay here”
Alive, but only breathing to pay a price

Your wings are clipped
Your soul is starving
You’re a hostage who refuses to be unleashed and released

Blind follow the blind
A work so divine
Vying to be the next sacrifice
Obey their instructions
To the abyss that the grievers designed
Prison with no bricks
Shelter in place
Urging to feel protected and safe
Unwise and unconscious
Rot in the casket that you have created

Forget all defiance
Sacrifice your souls on the altar
of specious security
Accepting chains by choice

Flying is a crime, said the cowards
Courage is a sin, said the cowards
Give in to the force, said the cowards caged in amenity
Flying is a crime, said the cowards
Courage is a sin, said the cowards
Give in to the force, said the cowards
Reduced to walking dead
Intrinsic servility

You’re born to be enslaved
Seems like your life will die twice
Once in flesh
Once in mind
Relinquished to oppressors
Your fear leads
To dead end
