Isn't that what masculinity has become!

 

There are things they don't talk of 

Shadows they battle in silence

Ideas we only wish we could unlearn 

From the darkness we run 

And escape from these fights 

But somehow the chains drags you back 

And makes you believe you'd find all that you lack 

It's all darkness, it's all silence 

Talk not of your fears, you're a man 

Need to be steady and in control, that's all a 'perfect' society is

Masculinity is nailing us on hard wood

Deeping us to the ocean bottom, we can't breath 

Society has become our threat 

Preaching masculinity while we choke in it 

Things they don't talk of, such 

Darkness and silence 

All wankers are ghosts; the pedophilic priest is talking 

All introverts are addicts to coitus; that's the holy nun saved after ten years of being a striper 

Judges of the our chains there

They define darkness as our fault, not our nightmares 

Things we battle without their knowledge

We run from darkness, but the chains allow us not 

So we continue to lie in the dark 

Until it becomes part of us 

Until we find happiness in it.

And get lost forever...
