One Chain
I AM
One chain
away
from the day
when everything was so black
and grey
One chain
away
from when I actually care
about anything you have to say
One chain
away
from home sweet home
and home sweet home to stay
One chain
away
from getting down on my knees
to say thank you, God, and pray
One chain
away
from convincing myself
that I'm gonna make it
and be ok
One chain
away
from feeling hopeless
each and everyday
One chain
away
from being on my back
abused
confused
and under attack
when everything was so grey
and black
One chain
away
from coming out of the black and grey
into the light where I can finally see
One chain
away
from breaking loose
and running free
from leaving you
and loving me
