Bound by Duty Lyrics

I wear these chains, though you feel them too

Bound by the duties we both can't undo

Each day we walk the lines we've made

Trapped in a life we can't evade

Your heart, like mine, is torn apart

But we live for others, and hide our hearts

I see your pain, though it's unspoken

Two souls too tied, but both are broken

Bound by duty, we can't let go

Caught in promises we'll never show

Tied to lives we didn't choose

A love we feel, but bound to lose

Bound by duty, hearts in two

Both of us knowing what's true

In silent nights, I feel your gaze

We live in shadows, lost in the maze

Every smile hides what's beneath

A love that lives but cannot breathe

We walk a path we didn't choose

Caught in a world that we can't refuse

I see your face in every step I take

Knowing that your heart too will break

Bound by duty, we can't let go

Caught in promises we'll never show

Tied to lives we didn't choose

A love we feel, but bound to lose

Bound by duty, hearts in two

Both of us knowing what's true

If only I could break these chains

But in this life, we must remain

We wear this weight, it's wearing thin

But duty pulls us both back in

Bound by duty, we can't let go

Caught in promises we'll never show

Tied to lives we didn't choose

A love we feel, but bound to lose

Bound by duty, hearts in two

Both of us knowing what's true

Bound by duty, yet I still know

In your heart, you can't let go
