I remember when everything was simple
I prayed everything seemed possible
I had dreams too they were really huge
I did done things that were really cool
I was amongst a few good examples

Until you came and chained me
Until you came and jailed me
Until you came and took from me
My sight as you blindfolded me, so
You can take my hand, as you leaded me
To your cage and told me it was ok.

You brought shame, you brought fear
You brought pain and you brought tears
You broke my bones and crippled me
You took from me the blessings and
You changed the real me and everything
You took from me my soul and my spirit.

I wish I could go back, but I'm jailed
I wish I could be free, but I'm chained
I tried to escape in one and many ways
I tried not to lose hope, but it just fades
I tried to stay strong as they said
I tried to push and punch but I failed.

Don't you get tied, don't you get bored
Don't you see that I'm harmless
Don't you see that I'm worthless
How could you be so heartless
Why you fighting me, I'm defenseless
You have everything, I have nothing left

Just leave me, just free me
I want to just be me, the old me
I want to pray, I want to play
Good songs of praise and dance
I want to sleep at night
I wat have a big smile without you.


I just want you to stay away from me
I will keep away from you too.
What's your addiction?
