Anguished Soul

This pain inside I cannot bear,
It's been there for years, but goes nowhere.
I’ve tried to rid my soul of such pain,
Believe me I have tried everything.

You would never know or ask why,
As I was passing you by.
You could never read me like a book,
Because I’m closed and sealed lipped.

There is no hope inside of me,
Full of sin and depravity.
Alone, alone, hopeless and alone.
My soul cries life but I have none.

I feel the chains coming for me
To hold me down, so I can't be free.
My soul keeps fighting, searching for more
Until it finds what it's created for.
