Windows boarded shut
Never getting out
Confined by chains and thought
Bound by my own will
My lungs have given out
From what I can not say
Not from yelling out
But from holding back
Constrict my every thought
Subside over me
I hold myself captive
I cannot be free
Always holding back
Never getting out
Always on my own
Never getting out

Windows boarded shut
Never getting out
Confined by chains and thought
Bound by my own will
My lungs have given out
From what I can not say
Not from yelling out
But from holding back
Constrict my every thought
Subside over me
I hold myself captive
I cannot be free
Always holding back
Never getting out
Always on my own
Never getting out
