Where am I, I do not know
Only that a ship
Looking majestic and magnificent from afar
Boarding is now done
Off to a destination unknown
For I do not know, if the destination exists
So many people around but I do not see a soul
Admist, the crowd onboard no one seems to be whole
But there she is,
Sailing across the vast sea
Shining bright under the blue sky
To a darkness of pitch black at night
We wake up every morning with the sun
Running all day
Drenched in fatigue and hunger satiable by none
"For every meal, you deal" and so we were warned
With every night fall as we entered a cage
Wrapping ourselves with the bread we've earned
For there are no arms with warmth
Home seems far just a memory perhaps
In the silence of night
We let the comfort of dreams engulf us
For that is the only escape before dawn haunts us
