Keeping My Blinders On

4:33  PM  29 Nov 2014

Walking through the night with my blinders on
Haunted by the memories of an old country song

The chains of the past finally wearing thin and breaking off
The dawn ahead in my tunnel vision warm and soft

Invites me to the future where there is the land of the free
Gotta keep these blinders fastened tight so I can see what will  be

The anchor in my heart so heavy tearing it in two
I can not turn back though my heart be torn through

The pain so hard to bear 
Pain that know one can share

But when I reach that beautiful land
On my two feet I will stand

I will stand strong without the chains
I will stand tall without the pain

I will overcome this life and Live!
