Shackles -

From this far away — it becomes so hard to tell

Just where I should be

I can’t take anymore, just set me free

I’ve laid in the land of the make believe

I’ve drank the water with no relief

Oh, I’ve tried but I’ve never relied

On the people next to me

I can’t take anymore, just set me free

Held by the shackles and chains you’ve created

By the love you said you had

No can’t see, no nothing

But the lies you said to me

You take away all those countless dreams

I’m searching for what belongs to me

Take away all those countless dreams

I’m searching for…

You thought you knew me

You thought you knew me well

My friends all told me — that I’m just no myself

My life’s been taken

My life’s been taken back

Think you’re mistaken — if you think I’m…

Held by the shackles and chains you’ve created

By the love you said you had

No can’t see, no nothing

But the lies you said to me

Look at my empty soul — my misery loves company

I can’t seem to break free — time is so binding

You take away all those countless dreams

I’m searching for what belongs to me

Take away all those countless dreams

I’m searching for…

When you walked in my whole world walked out

Left alone to try and figure it out

From this far away — it becomes so hard to tell

Just where I should be

I can’t take anymore, just set me free
