Shackles
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
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 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 not 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 empty old me
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
