You Held Me With Your Tears

You played to all my fears
You held me with your tears
I'm trying to hold on
Even tho all love has gone

You bound me in your chains
Your love drove me insane
I tried to leave again 

You held me with your tears

A moment in my life
I held you as my wife
It wasn't meant to be
I'm trying to break free

I caught your reflected smile
Still crying all the while
You played me like a harp
You broke my weary heart

You held me with your tears

Our child used like a weapon
The isolation that you threaten
Pulling my invisible cord
While screaming that you're bored

My feelings have all gone
I just can't carry on

I'm running on a wheel
My pain I can't conceal
I try to keep it real
The misery I feel

I beg you let me be
Why can you not see
I just want to be free

Don't hold me with your tears
