Bound by the Chains

Mind's a battlefield, thoughts collide

Struggling within

There's no place to hide

Echoes in the dark, a haunting refrain

Breaking free

But I'm bound by the chains

Are you able to control

The thing that you hate

From taking over in your brain

To make you feel out of date

Though like a ticking time bomb

You fear you don't have to wait long

Till you're tempted again

With another bait of

An improbable problem probably

Now inevitably you will finally

Cave in and regret it entirely

Claiming you followed your heart apparently

Turn a new leaf, turn the corner

Turn it around before you turn to a loner

Turn on your mind

Turn off your bad habit

Leave it behind or you might even love it

Mind's a battlefield, thoughts collide

Struggling within, there's no place to hide

Echoes in the dark, a haunting refrain

Breaking free, but I'm bound by the chains

I may be ethically clean

But deep within, my inner me

My very own enemy

My brain ready to flee

Ready to take another trip

With a free ticket to freedom

A non-refundable far away mental kingdom

Now look, look at the bird eye view

Of my bedroom of doom and gloom

With my head on a bed, glued

To another cool pillow

Gaining another kilo

Due to the mental battle of my villain and hero

'Nother fight, in my mind

Trying to prevent it from finding

More guilt while looking behind

Rather than forward in time

Terrified of the lifeline

And the fine line between

My own heart and my head taking me for a ride

Mind's a battlefield, thoughts collide

Struggling within, there's no place to hide

Echoes in the dark, a haunting refrain

Breaking free, but I'm bound by the chains

I can't control the dream I've got

Can't control my brain from thought

I can't control a craving at all

Can't control my mind when I'm out of control

Mind's a battlefield, thoughts collide

Struggling within, there's no place to hide

Echoes in the dark, a haunting refrain

Breaking free, but I'm bound by the chains

Mind's a battlefield, thoughts collide

Struggling within, there's no place to hide

Echoes in the dark, a haunting refrain

Breaking free, but I'm bound by the chains
