Chained..

Neath the ground, where all is dark,
the sun has never shone,
I lay, in tears, on dusty floors
So scared, and all alone.

Sorrow tears my empty heart,
And pain enters my soul,
No way in means no way out;
No way to pay the toll.

The chains that bind me bring me down,
So hard to pull away
And since your sheriff in my town,
There's nothing left to say.

I listen to your taunting threats
Each and every day,
Bit by bit, and part by part,
You take my soul away.
