Another Hell

Reality breaks and reconstructs itself 
The mind breaks the best it can 
and rewires a new man 
One that can fend for himself 

One not led by the contempt and fear 
that kept him alive year after year 
They’re no longer needed here 
It’s time to tear off his peel 

The body that never had time to heal
It trembles and fakes nerves of steel   
Even without its protective wall 
The boy’s doubt survives despite it all

If devils have new faces 
and pain a different feel 
In this place, where all should be well
What if it’s another hell?

Where loving embraces
Hold knives behind them
It could be another of those places 
It could just be another hell
