Caged
(Written 12/8/95)

I'm on the inside,
looking out these filthy eyes.
From within my cage,
of locked up rage,
and I see you.
So smooth and milky white,
clean and bleach bright.

I see your purity,
and I want to unknowingly ruin you.
Please won't you come near,
why won't you leave me here.
I'm screaming in my own ear,
I know I've got the key right here.
I don't think I wanted to love you,
I think now, you never really cared.
I think I got what I wanted,
and I still complained.
I think I just wanted to be hurt.
