I cry so hard, I’m in so much pain

My soul is on fire, I’m going insane.

This will never end, I’m just a joke

I’ve given up, there is no more hope.

I’ll never break my chains, I’ll never be free

I’ll never be healed, I’ll never be Me.

Tears never ceasing, hurt never easing

Finding nothing pleasing, inside I’m freezing.

Why can’t they see that I burn on the inside

I feel worthless and weak, I have no pride.

I can’t break my chains, I can’t be free

I can’t be healed, I can’t be Me.

Harder than steel I must be to survive

A false show of strength so my feelings I can hide.

I’m weary from dragging myself through each day

If anyone knows the path, please show me the way!

I wish I could break my chains, I wish I could be free

I wish I could be healed, I wish I could be Me.

I hate this struggle that I go through in life

I’m sick of the anger, I’m sick of the strife.

Is there no way out? I just want to shout!

Give me a break, let me work this out!

If only I could break my chains, if only I could be free

If only I could be healed, if only I could be Me.

I’ve been fighting so hard, I’ve been trying to figure out

Can I ease the pain, can I be rid of this doubt?

I still want to give in and call it a day,

This is so unpleasant, I must leave, I can’t stay!

I can break my chains, I can be free

I can be healed, I can be Me.

I go through tough trials many times through the week,

Yet I won’t give up and I will continue to seek

For that bright ray of hope that’s beginning to shine

And indicates to me that my life will be mine!

I WILL break my chains! I WILL be free!

I WILL be healed  I WILL be ME!
