Hands tied, eyes closed
So many things I've had to say
So many chances have escaped
Facing life with blinders on
A slave to my own inhibitions
And at times there's peace
Moments of release
From the terror that petrifies life
But it never lasts
The sky's are overcast
The bravado is washed away
Hands tied, eyes closed
The things I've had to say
Chances I've let escape
Watch them slip away, watch them die out
Always there
Hidden fear
Of self doubt
Cant break out
I wont let it win
I cant let it win
I wont let it win
I cant let it win
Close my eyes and hope
Hope it goes away
Hope I'm safe inside for another day
Close my eyes and hope
Hope it goes away
Hope I'm safe inside for another day
