Chained
I told myself to be strong even when I failed
The blood on the floor as I looked at them
Shame covered my face as tears fell
How the hell did this happen, I knew this well
The laughter echoing inside my head
They made me fight like an animal
For freedom from the hurtful chains
I was told there was never an escape
I refuse to give in to those cries in the night
No one told me this would be so hard
The gapping hole in my thigh the heart
That breaks in my chest, I can't find my breath
One by one I break the chains charging
My body into the air wanting to damage everything
In front of me with all my despair
You stole my freedom and twisted my love
Made me into something that I hated
Something that was hard to deal with even now
I stand there with blood flowing down
My eyes show my determination my drive
Gapping holes all up in my thighs
I remain tamed like a wild beast fighting the chains
I lower my head in shame because sadly
With all my fight and might I am still chained
