Stranger

You have bestowed upon me a gift and a curse
An idea, remembrance, longing, hurt

I have acquired a spark from you, a new memory
I remember a time when things were better for me

Stranger you should have stayed away, for now you have me thinking
How did I end up here, what is my purpose, my meaning?

Sometimes what "they" say is true, ignorance is bliss
Now I have a hole, something that I miss

Better to not have known, better kept in the dark
Now there is a war inside me, I'm being torn apart

How long will it take to forget? To become a zombie once again
Happy in my prison, forevermore caged in
