Ensnare

I wish my heart would just stop beating,
there's no music,
There's no sound.
Silent footsteps all around.
How do I know if I'm really breathing?
There's no future,
There's no dreams.
Life isn't ever what it seems.
Please, take my hand,
lead me deeper,
draw me in,
Be my keeper.
There's so many chains that bind my wrists,
There's no escape,
There's only shame,
And I'm the only one to blame.
I wait upon your hand to feed me
but there's no food,
There's no water.
I'm the lamb being led to the slaughter.
Please, kiss my lips,
tell me a lie,
pull me close,
stay by my side.
And I'll feel the bitter pain again
There's no joy,
There's no release.
You shattered me, and lost every piece.
Now I'll tumble towards the ground
It's over,
I'm done,
I hope you realize that because of you, I'm gone.
