Break These Chains




Encased in this prison of my own making
Struggling to break free from the pain
I cry out, I scream for my release
My cries go unheard, they hide behind a smile

Outward I am strong, I've always had to be
But inside, I yearn for the childhood taken from me
While the majority strive for material gain
Me, I yearn for someone to hold me

Someone to love me without question
To unlock the door of this cell, so I can run free
Oh how I long to be free
To experience what others take for granted

Hope is what I cling to
It is only hope that keeps me alive
I know there is more to life than this
Because if theres not, what good is freedom?

Please God, help me to break free from these chains
To allow myself to experience happiness
Help me to see that no matter what I have been told
It is something that is available to us all

We just have to be willing to accept it
It is there, if we just reach out our hand
