I was locked into love by this chain,
Made of heavy steel,
Couldn’t escape, nothing to gain,
Didn’t get a chance to heal.
But then I fell for you,
You had always been my friend,
But I had never thought through
That you’d make this journey end.
I thank you from the bottom of my heart,
For making it all go away,
But it kills me that we are apart,
That’s why I can not stay.
Don’t want to do this anymore,
I am about to leave,
About to spread my wings and soar,
To somewhere I can believe.
Don’t want to live at this place,
Just want to go, want to flee,
There’s too many lies for me to face,
That’s why I have to break free.
This secret can’t be hidden,
But they’ve made it quite clear,
From telling this truth I am forbidden
So you’ll never get to hear
Just how much I love you,
Just how much I care,
Just how much it hurts me to
Never see you there.
But it doesn’t matter I’m leaving,
Leaving love and pain,
But when I’ve finished grieving,
I’ll thank you for breaking my chain.
