The Key

Stuck in a cruel world
Stuck in a broken body
Stuck with frustration
Breaking concentration
Wallow in the mud
Which is self-created
Depression taking over
Calling all the shots
Where is the fight?
Locked in a box
Weighted down with stone
Drowned in self-sorrow
Finding yourself all alone
Dark thoughts for company
Invading the mind
Speaking of evil
A life of crime
Where is the key?
Why must I be stuck?
How did I get here?
Stuck in the muck
Look deeper inside
Inside of yourself
The key is there
Must accept help
Reach out for a hand
While reaching for the key
Change is waiting
Close your eyes to see
You must turn the lock
Pull the chains away
No more self-bondage
Create a new day
The power is within
Make it what you will
Open the window
Pray and be still
The window to the heart
Allows the sun to come in
Changing life
Finding happiness again
