Chains of Steel

These chains of steel locked without a key Protecting my heart and soul Of the pain, the torture The devastation I did endure once maybe more I trusted all of you, as I opened to share all of me To face the reflection, watching my heart, my eyes Bleeding tears for the first time My heart now breaking through me I'm forcing it far back Mending my body with chains of steel Sealing it closed with the fire light flame My screams of pain echoes across the ocean For the world to hear Falling to their knees, crying for me and my happiness To shine maybe one more day My soul bares all of innocence, as the chains of steel Cover all to protect, from a love that came Now torn away The moment my tears, my cry began to bleed Rushing blood through my eyes The sight of light has gone from my reach Left with shadows I can see The steel's of chains is now complete Behind my heart I left the key Until the day I wish to feel again The day I can forgive again Then all you have to do is turn the key
