Enslaved

ENSLAVED
Into a desperate home
Of a beaten and broken man
There is a sound of hope
resting in his trembling hands
I thought I was alone,
but here you are again
Step out of the shadow,
let me tell you how it all began
Every breath is like concrete,
every step with lead in your bones
Running away from their peering eyes
Set in the direction that they always despised
Piece of the truth stuck in your head
Hear your inner voice and soon you will understand
Lie a thousand times,
God will believe
You are never wrong if no one will compete
(Its like)
Seeing for the first time,
the scales falling from you eyes
Found a purpose for a week or two,
always leading to the same demise
There is nothing beneath the mask
But the same face you hide behind
What's the point?
Can't conceal the sadness in your eyes
The suffering never ends
It only ends when we're dead
Face to face - with your own mistakes
Can't shut it down - I need to cut it out
I buried the man I was destined to be
I cut of the hand that tried to hold on to that dream
The uncertainty of having no direction
With destiny at play and no roots, no attachments
When death is calling every hour every day
All that is left behind but everything is at stake
Piece of the truth stuck in your head
Hear your inner voice and soon you will understand
Lie a thousand times, God will believe
You are never wrong if no one will compete
