I don't need you to say
Pain is coming close
I know all too well

By the force of your hand

I am so afraid

You have crushed my will
As my tears run softly down


I ask you to stop
You continue anyway
Is this what you call love

As I shut my eyes

I could have been free

Without your chains
But my tears still run softly down


Will I ever know
A life away from you
As my tears still run softly down
