Unchained

There once was a time And a place With a different name And a different face Bound by the shackles And Kept out of sight The fire it crackles At the dawn of first light Remnants of love Shattered about They fit like a glove This, there is no doubt Left for the wanderer Who must have a key Not wanting to squander What only the wounded can see Take a piece if you must To heal your wounds And rebuild your trust For this is the beginning Of a new day and life Your path is no longer thinning The end, of misery and strife. Strong as the ox And faithful as the bow A paradox We all should know The fire it crackles And burns out of sight You're free from your shackles As day turns to night. A key to give From he who once lost his soul There is more life to live After love has taken its toll
