Locked Away

Mary Helen Trujillo 1987 (Colorado)

Locked away Alone again
With feelings and hurt I can't comprehend
I've seen the darkness I've seen the light
As I'm lost in a war
I can't win I can't Fight
I've lost already
I already know
I've lost you My heart and My soul
Life isn't worth living My world is gone
You've locked me away And again I'm alone
My heart is empty My life's incomplete
Without you with me I can feel defeat
As the cold of the darkness
Lingers in my soul
I've lost you ~My Love~
But I can't let you go
