Within The Captured
Be quiet
Be still
Why must you be so loud?
Lie here
Put this jewelry on
Who will help you now?

Click them together
Bounded so tight
Escaping isn't possible.
There we go
Cooperating now
I won't be held liable.

Take this key
Put it in your mouth
What's going to happen now?
Close your mouth
I'll tape it together
Make it go all the way down.

Be careful
Make the handcuffs last
I'll see you another day.
Stop struggling
You can't be freed
There's no possible way.

I'll put this over your head
It's only a plastic bag
Where's the fear in that?
Except one thing
You could suffocate
And drop dead flat.

I need to speak
About an issue
It's really bugging me.
I forgot to tell
That key you swallowed
Was actually your handcuff key.

There we go
You're dying now
You're turning so blue.
Don't blame me
If you can't escape
Your freedom is inside of you.
