Chains
why did i give my heart away
when i was so young
why didn't i know better
my life had just begun
but something so easily given
is not so easy to return
a fact that life has taught me
a lesson i have learned
now shackled in these chains
i've put upon myself
down this path i've chosen
to follow someone else
i hear freedom calling
how i love the sound
from the darkness that surrounds me
down this road i'm bound
now my sight is turned inside myself
to see who i've become
innocence lost forever
for someone still so young
i didn't want to do it
but did i really have a choice?
that gaining freedom for myself
meant hurting someone else
time heals wounds
at least that's what they say
but it doesn't really matter
i could see no other way
now my life is so much better
free from all those chains
to go anywhere i choose
my heart is mine again
