To be as I am You must experience What I have been through What I have felt, and thought Not only during the events I keep Chained to a wall in the unconscious of my psyche But in all of the times I have taken simple pleasures And soiled them With my lure of taking pretty things And ripping them apart What a horrid habit of mine To take a good situation And manipulate it until all I have to do Is strike a match, stand back, and watch As everything that was once beautiful Turns to ruins at my feet The only things left are The memories I have Of the horrible things I've done Another set of chains on the wall

Chains.
Endless silhouettes upon a moonlit path My demons have come to play Enduring symphonies inside my head They're taking my sanity away I've been waiting for you my dear You're locked away in my mind I am filled with fear Fear that remains over time An unkindness empowered by violent delights Acceptance is key to peace in my mind The demons have silenced, but I know they remain For now and forever I am declared insane
