Chained To Your Love

by Viola   Apr 1, 2007


Captured by your sweet love
And your tempting lies that I always believe
I'll try to pretend that I'm fine
Just to hold on to you tight
But you are killing me tonight

So I look into your eyes
But I can't see my reflection
Just see your blank stare
So I look away
Before you realize that I care

Simply being around just ain't enough
But you seem to not realize
When life gets rough
I need you to help me see
That there's still a bright light inside of me

But you just continue talking some more
A pointless conversation
And you stand solid on the hard floor
As I fall down on the ground sore
But you never even think to break my fall

And I'm starting to feel alone
I look at you soundly breathing
While I'm gasping for air
And I'm starting to think you don't love me anymore
So why then do I still stay chained to you?

Maybe I'm just desperate to believe
That maybe one day you will actually care
Look into my eyes if you dare
And help me escape this misery
Cause I'm buried by the weight of my pain

Don't look at me just to walk away
As if you don't see my pain
And I ask myself again "why do I still stay?"
I stay cause I know in your careless way
You will help me forget the rain

So drown me in your sweet love
Cause I'll believe your every lie
And chain me to the ground some more
Just hold me and pretend it's alright
Tell me I won't be alone again tonight

Cause you are my only escape
From the darkness I can't seem to break free of
And I have never felt this lost before
But if you hold me I promise I'll regain control
And I will find the strength within my soul to stand tall

If only you told me you loved me
If only you promised to be there
To seek the answer to my crushed soul
And to let me go once and for all
So I can be free from your torturing chains
