Chokehold - Marianas Rest

Crawling back

To quench my thirst

Surrounded with water

But never satisfied

Nothing between

This skin and bone

Nothing to nourish

Though I devour

Free to roam the earth

But too weak to do so

Rattling my invisible cage

But the bars will never break

Free to roam the earth

But too weak to do so

Put down by those

We authorized to make us free

Just skin and bones

But there is lot to be taken away

See me through and through

There must be something for you to take

We are all just one neck

Forever in a chokehold

Invisible hand grips us tight

Never lets us go

I am free

To do as you instruct

I am free

To become who you construct

I am free

Free to follow

And I am free

Forever hollow
