You held me captive with fears of the unknown
You held my pride with threats unshown
You told me without you, I'd always be alone
And I believed you.

I told myself it was better this way
A Stepford wife, I'd wake up everyday
The mundane became my numbing dismay
And I called it love.

Imagine the feeling of breaking through
the clouds, the mirk, the smog of you
I broke the bloodied chains put in place by you
And I ran.

My mind is now free from your forced confusion
You can't control me past the veil of your delusion
My broken bones have healed along with all the contusions
And the tattoos of scars remind.
