Song language: English
Shackled |
| For so long my life’s been sewn up tight inside your hold |
| And it leaves me there without a place to call my own |
| I know now what shadows can see |
| There’s no point in running 'less you run with me |
| It’s half the distance through the open door |
| Before you cut me down |
| Again |
| Let me introduce you to the end |
| And I feel the cold wind blowing beneath my wings |
| It always leads me back to suffering |
| But I will soar until the wind whips me down |
| Leaves me beaten on unholy ground again |
| So tired now of paying my dues |
| I start out strong but then I always lose |
| It’s half the distance before you leave me behind |
| It’s such a waste of time |
| 'Cause my shackles |
| You won’t be |
| And my rapture |
| You won’t believe |
| And deep inside you will bleed for me |
| So here I slave inside of a broken dream |
| Forever holding on to splitting seams |
| So take your piece and leave me alone to die |
| I don’t need you to keep my faith alive |
| I know now what trouble can be |
| And why it follows me so easily |
| It’s half the distance through the open door |
| Before you shut me down |
| Again |
| Let me introduce you to the end |
| Though you know you care |
| And my laughter |
| You won’t hear |
| The faster |
| I disappear |
| And time will burn your eyes to tears |
