Bound No More

my feet have been washed with your dirty hands,
 all your golden chariots have been crushed in foreign lands,
  the prince and the pauper were at one time the same,
 is deception your road to glory and to fame, 
 no it is merely the path to your downfall,  
made change for a dollar but it's done too late to call

      // once you were the light of my soul,  
       but in your presence no longer does it glow, 
       for I have seen truly by my own sight,  
       and your love for another I will not fight,//

 hold me close and whisper in my ear,
 I promise you I  cannot hear,
blasting my way out of this bind,
 it's clear you're not the faithful kind,
 got  a thrill to chase,
 and your just a little out of place, 

      running uphill to get down, 
     and still the treasure cannot be found 
     eventually the well rums dry,
     answers run out no reason why,
      I have served your sentence, 
      for you there is no repentance, 
     out to sea I let the current carry me,
     as long as you remain on ashore I  am free
