Tyler Watkins - Sanitarium

The house for the insane
A.K.A. the world we live in...
The place for people like Joker and Bane?
Or the place no one can seem to end.
End meaning escaping.
Escaping and leaving this world,
The world everyone puts us in.
The strereotypes we can't help but make true.
The place we go if our actions are 'crazy'
Can we ever really leave this sanitarium?
This world rather...
Is there a way we can dismiss ourselves?
Become any and everything our hearts imagine?
Living the luxury no one will ever see, think, and create.
Feel the feelings of immortality,
Be what YOU want to be...
Is that the key?
The thing that went by so fast?
To be or not to be,
Like the next person besides me?
To leave this sanitaruim of our lives,
Not scared to see what's coming our way.
The key to tranquility,
To love, compassion, wealth, fortune, povery, heartbreak, death, life...
Any and everything...
If this is true
It must also be true that we trap ourselves...
Put ourselves in boxes...
The boxes of other peoples shadows...
The place with no key in sight...
Because the key is inside...
Being yourself puts u outside the box
Outside and beyond anyone and anything else...
Outside and beyond this world...
Outside and beyond this globalize scaled
Sanitarium
