"Keep Calm and Carry On"


Captured and bound; a metallic chain gripping me around the neck
Holding me breathless, smothering me into eternity
A stained memory, an etching that cannot be erased
The soul that haunts me, a heart beating furiously

Holding me breathless, smothering me into eternity
It leaves reality in the dense black dust
The soul that haunts me, a heart beating furiously
A chill, yet burns to the touch; I shiver

It leaves reality in the dense black dust
Bright, creeping wisps of bitter, acrid ribbons
A chill, yet burns to the touch; I shiver
Hands forcefully turning back time in my mind

Bright, creeping wisps of bitter, acrid ribbons
A cold frigid night, a lone dark path
Hands forcefully turning back time in my mind
Heart of shattered promises, whispers of a future never to be

A cold frigid night, a lone dark path
Hands forcefully turning back time in my mind
Heart of broken promises, whispers of a future never to be
Captured and bound; a metallic chain gripping me around the neck
