Imprisoned within myself,
Can't fight my way out.
I want to speak,
To shout my objections,
But the words won't come.
No one knows my pain,
Only you can set me free.
Broken and alone inside,
I can't let the world see.
My emotions overflowing,
I'm drowning inside me.
My thoughts once sharp,
Are hazy and undefined.
I want to think,
To throw my attitude outward,
But the process is broken down.
No one knows my pain,
Only you can set me free.
Broken and alone inside,
I can't let the world see.
My emotions overflowing,
I'm drowning inside me.
The heart that once ached,
And longed for your touch,
Is numb and unfeeling.
I want to feel,
But I just can't anymore.
No one knows my pain,
Only you can set me free.
Broken and alone inside,
I can't let the world see.
My emotions overflowing,
I'm drowning inside me.
Please help me,
Let me loose from this trap.
Only your love can release me,
Until then I'm bottled up inside.
