shackled

As you walked unholy grounds
I was the dust clung to your sole
And when you ran out of bounds
I stayed to guard your retreat hole

And you thought i'll always be there
Like i'm shackled.
I'd rather be elsewhere, anywhere
Than shackled.

Let me make the introduction,
Lately you seem to forget.
You love not me but a fraction,
The one jammed in your preset.
You're crying now to no avail.
Call it destiny, fate, kismet;
Fugitive from emotional blackmail,
I run as far as I can get.

You wanted me to always be there,
Had me shackled.
I wanted to be elsewhere, anywhere
No more shackled.
