Forever Bound

Freedom is something I'll never have

even though my body looks free

My soul shall be forever bound

for all of eternity

And no you can not help me

because no amount can break

these chains that hold me captive

and make me cry great lakes

For I am bound by many lies

I can’t tell anyone the truth

I can’t even tell half my story

of what happened in my younger youth

I am bound by all of my fears

they make me shiver and quake

I wish they would just go away

but they’re always present, asleep or awake

I’m bound by the role I have to play

I have to act so happy and sweet

even if I’m upset and angry inside

so kindly must others I treat

I am bound by words unspoken

I am bound by secrets untold

I am bound to help the broken

I am bound to warm the cold
