Unable to speak, unable to shout
The words stay suppressed, not coming out
These shackles of hopes that chain my heart
Are squeezing me tighter, tearing me apart
The air is suffocating, it's harder to breathe
With all of these dreams that won't leave me be
Chained in the dungeon called a safe, loving home
Where, although they are here, I'm always alone
I can't look at them, a part of me dies
Whenever I look at those bright, hopeful eyes
There are no doors in these solid walls
The only way out is for me to fall
But as I fall, and leave this place
Another one comes and takes my place
The wretched guilt, she's unable to shout,
Words held suppressed, no longer let out
The guilt as I watch one suffer for me
And the guilt of joy, I'm finally free
