My Feedom

Does this pain ever end
When does my heart begin to mend
Forever lead astray
Wishing I’d find a place to stay

Heaven hear my prayer
I lay my soul to bare
Wishing to be free
Wishing I could just be

This constant battle in my mind,
In me, will forever bind
My life to this never-ending pain
Chaining me to this life so insane

Someone please hear my silent screams
Seeing freedom only in my dreams
Makes me pray for a better day
Where light shines my way

I must be free from this gleaming gray
Forever stained with the darker days
I’ve worn my pain upon the flesh
Pain and freedom have begun to mesh

Leaving me frightened
Wondering how far I can bend
Is that the breaking point I see
Or what’s become the life of me

Security left behind in the past
Madness closing in fast
I close my eyes one last time
Tell me, is freedom a crime?
