Set Free

Bitter screams from my heart
Scream for mending to do its part
You walked away from me
That is clear now, I can see.

Remember when you said " I promise"
"I'll never give up" is what followed
I saw truth in your eyes
You would drown in the times I've sarrowed

There's a sickness in my soul
Planted by the hand I used to hold
How I've cried for healing
From the love that used to surround me.

Remembering the love I had
Tortures my poor heart
Should have known
It wouldn't work from the start

Oh, how my heart aches
For all the senseless mistakes
Thought it could tell the difference
Of real versus fake

Empty inside
Nothing left to be found
All your careless words
Lay my emotions six feet under ground

Resurrecting my spirit
Everytime you offer hope
But in the end
I'm left with no way to cope

For all that has happened
And all that will be
I pray that one day
I'll be set free..
