Shackles

Fear has always chained me
To a wall of self doubt
I have tried to escape
But my mind won't allow

Shackles around my soul
As I try to awaken
From the deepest darkness
The demons awaiting

Watching my failures
The mistakes I have made
Hope for a second chance
As my time seems to fade

My hope locked in a box
With no key to open
My memories replay
All the good ones broken

Stuck on an endless road
No other path appears
The car runs out of gas
No single place is near

Torn between two sides
The internal battle
I'm lost and all alone
As the string unravels
