I'm trapped in a corner
Tethered to a chain
Locked inside this prison
With no one but myself to blame
Counting every shit decision that led me to this place
A cog in a machine
A rat trapped in a race

A monolith of broken dreams
A thunderstorm of pain
Herded into servitude
Packed into the train
Indentured into slavery with no hope of escape
I can read the writing on this brick wall of hate

Beating my fists into a pulp
Catharsis in destroying myself
Nothing to do but just admit
That I'm living in a world of shit

I walk alone
I walk in circles
Forward progress to the same place that I started from
So fuck it all
Staring at a brick wall

Beaten to submission
Whittled to a nub
Nothing's real but pain now
Chew my tongue to taste my blood
Hanging from the torture rack
Bleeding like a sieve
Praying for the kiss of death
Because this ain't no way to live

Beating my fists into a pulp
Catharsis in destroying myself
Nothing to do but just admit
That I'm living in a world of shit

I walk alone
I walk in circles
Forward progress to the same place that I started from
So fuck it all
Staring at a brick wall
