Multivariate Outliers - A Promise I Can't Keep

Something deep down inside me
Puts all I love
At stake
And lately
I've felt it pacing
In its ivory cage
I know that eventually
Those fragile bars will break
When its foul blood starts racing
There's no holding back
The oncoming rage
And I try and try to keep you safe
From all the things of which I'm not allowed to speak
And every step I take I feel my shackles chafe
I fear what may rise
From my dungeons deep
Something deep down inside me
Is poised to tear
My life to shreds
And if I don't gain more control
I'll be past the point of no return
One day once it breaks free
And passion with imprudence beds
I fear it will swallow me whole
For its hunger has long outgrown my concern
And I try and try to keep it fed
With all the things of which I'm not allowed to speak
And all my best intentions, they seem to have been misled
To say it won't rise
From my dungeons deep
Is a promise I can't keep
Oh, it's a promise I can't keep
