I am breaking underneath the weight of this rusty, wasting chain.
It breaks my mind, my heart, my will - such excruciating pain.
The heaviness of deep despair fills each nook within my soul.
The flames of joy no longer shine, only ash from burned-out coal.
I am breaking underneath the weight of a raging, pounding sea.
The waves, they batter and toss my bones. They do not care for me.
Waves knock me down, I hold my breath as my lungs burn deep inside.
I'm a helpless ragdoll tossed around. I despise this dreaded ride.
I am breaking underneath the weight of memories from the past.
They haunt my dreams and daylight thoughts. If I share, you'd be aghast!
I search for hope. I search for peace. I lunge and grope in vain.
For all I find is a broken man who's trapped by ball and chain.
We have all be weighed down by the worries of this world. Sometimes it feels like we are all alone, lost in a dream. But dear friends, you are not alone.
Keep searching for Peace and Truth. My hope is that you find it!
