My Freedom

I'm sitting in a dark room
Binded by these ropes
My hair is a mess
And so are my clothes

I cannot break free
Something holds me back
Everytime i move
The rope takes up the slack

When i try to scream
My throat closes up
A whisper in the darkness
"Keep your mouth shut"

My eyes can see nothing
But the darkness all around
And i can only feel the things
That lay scattered on the ground

A prisoner of this place
Is what i've learned i am
All because i fell in love
With the wrong kind of man

A whisper in the darkness
"Can't you do what your told?"
I cannot talk back
My body feels so old

I want to scream you bastard
Why are you doing this to me?
But something down inside says
He loves you, can't you see?

But my head knows it's a lie
And it tries to tell my heart
But nothing in me listens
And i let him tear me apart

No tears fall from my eyes
I have no strength to cry
I don't believe in faith anymore
What's the point to try?

I try to look at the bright side
"At least he hasn't left"
But a thought on the inside
Puts a question in myself

So i just sit there binded
And trapped in a dark place
I can't see anything
Or my murderers face

I sit there and die slowly
Thinking "what have i done?!"
he took the only thing i had
And that was....my freedom
