Breaking Out Tonight
Your name is despair
And you demand that I live in fear
I gave you everything that you have ever asked
But I never got anything in return for any of that
Although you still managed to continually stab me in the back
Your name is remorse
And you wish for me abide by a damaging oath
Nothing but puppet, as I was used as your scapegoat
Sinister strings guided me to cast aside all forms of hope
We considered each other friends, because you were all I used to know
Your name is sorrow
And you want me to never again see tomorrow
I am your undying sacrifice, the one and only reoccurring offering
Once you had a taste, you only had one thing on your mind – my suffering
Countless times, putting you before myself, it's traumatizing and so haunting
Your name is tainted
And you believe that we are fated
I've remained behind your bars, locked up and shackled
A prisoner held captive, wrapped in chains and a straitjacket
Handcuffed and muzzled, because you knew one day I would try and change this
Your name is corruption
And you desire for me to take on all of your burdens
I was a temporary cure for your demeaning curse
Stacking everything up on me just so you wouldn't get worse
It was all for your own benefit, and it paid off, but I just can't take it anymore
Your name is darkness
And you plan on always afflicting me with your sickness
But I cannot-and-will-not allow this to become my end
I believe in my own morals, and I have my own aspiring dreams
So I'm going to be leaving you, because this is my life, and this is my creed
Your name is the same as mine
But I'm going to be the only one who is breaking out TONIGHT!

And thank you.
Thank you, I'm so happy that you enjoyed this one. <3
But if you're wanting to use the bold parts, it'd be more of a tribute than an original piece. So if you do, make sure to label it as a tribute, and like, link back to this piece, if you do.
