Band of Gold

Silence so loud I cannot hear my thoughts Screaming prevents me from sleep I am tired Fading into oblivion I cannot close my eyes It hurts so much to remember Once loved and desired Consciences conflicted Bound to one A band of gold my jail Call it duty or cowardice I can never leave Longing for another To be loved and desired again Understood Satisfied Will I ever be free from these chains? Hope keeps me alive I dream of escape To be unrestricted Love is all I need To be without shackles In your arms once more Then and only then Will the silence be silent
