There was a time in my life
When I was all alone
And even though it was free from strife
I felt I had no home
Walls I built to keep myself in
Were in truth, strong and tall
Guarded deep in my fortress within
I swore to never let it fall
The life I lived at that time
Was seldom happy and glad
And looking back I see the sign
There I was: depressed and sad
An internal refuge I had for myself
A safe place for me to be
But thinking back I ask myself
Was I ever really free?
