so the chains finally break
i am set free
it is no longer us
but back to being me
the shackles of pain
fall to the floor
my heart starved of love
yearning for more
i feel so alive
so finally free
i know no boundaries
at least none that i see
i held on so long
my heart turned to stone
there will be no turning back
as i set out on my own
