In a world where the strong do not always rule
Some are cast down to where they hold no power
Condemned to an eternity of forced decisions
Until one day
Not only they
But the whole world around them
Breaks
For all the time
You hold me down
A war for my life
Faceless I'm bound
My will has gone away
A scar upon my heart
Again you're tearing me
Apart
You keep casting me
Why?
My hands are tied
I am breaking inside
Right from the start
My freedom you denied
I'm rotting in the dark
Alone… until the day I die
The road begins to break
It's right before my eyes
It's more than I can take
Your lies
Your lies
You chain me with your lies
My pain begins to rise
You sabotage my tries
A prison of my cries
My will
My will has gone away
A scar upon my heart
You're tearing me apart
Spiting on my life
Why?
My hands are tied
I am breaking right from
Inside!
My hands are tied
Why?
Oh, Why?
Oh, Why?
Why?
My hands are tied
I am breaking inside
I can't take any more
Bleeding from the core
The sounds of my war
They echo through my inner door
Free me from your chains
I can't take any more
Slowly I will die
Why? Why?
Why?
My hands are tied
I am breaking inside
Why?
My hands are tied
By your lies
Lies
Why?
I am breaking inside
It's burning my eyes
Why?! Why?
Why do you break me up inside?
Why? Oh, why?
