Chained

Chained to my past Of when I was a kid All the secrets that I've kept All the shame of it Chained by thoughts of failure And not being good enough Chained by all the thoughts that I Would rather give it up Chained by indecision Should I follow or should I lead And which way every day Will my chains be taking me Chained by broken heartache Afraid it will come again I wear these chains like I do my name Or the comfort of a friend Chained by what I can't or don't Feel I can let go Would I have these chains this very today If all this I would have known
