Shackles-Locked Down

Date: 12/30/00

Another chapter of my life complete,
another sad story, ends in defeat.
The next part begins, still have no clue
where to commence or what I should do
Experience is the best teacher, they say
but the first step is the hardest to take
Again I am helpless, in coward's chains
try to break free, but it's all in vain
Shackles on my mind seem stronger than steel
it's in my head, but it may as well be real
I'm locked down, shut out long before
I even get my foot in the fucking door.
It's all my fault, this whole mess
the price I pay for a moment's weakness
I can't break these horrible bonds,
won't you set me free?
