Chains Around You

Once when your life was an open door
Someone poisoned you blind
Can you remember those days without war
Now you have left them behind
Did you become what you needed to be
Have you achieved what you wanted
There was a time when your heart spoke free
Before the demon was planted yeah
How can you live
With these chains around you
Building your future on lies
Windows are open with a perfect view
You will see if you try
You can recover the heaven you knew
I saw you fall from the sky
Hiding your rainbow in the black and blue
Too late to regret when you die
Slowly you drown in your ocean of hell
No more ships passing by
Far in the distance the wind tries to tell
Of the ghost and the cry
There's no shame in the eyes of the fool
Only greed keeps you yearning
Like a fireball rolling in fuel
There's no end to the burning, no
How can you live
With these chains around you
Building your future on lies
Windows are open with a perfect view
You will see if you try
You can recover the heaven you knew
I saw you fall from the sky
Hiding your rainbow in the black and blue
Too late to regret when you die
Once I could read you like an open book
Till you closed up inside
Do you remember the love that you took
Stole my heart with a lie
Why do we carry these chains full of rust
Why are they haunting our minds
So many memories of broken trust
There's no erase or rewind
We must believe and try over again
Rise from that for you and I
Brave we will turn in the spindrift of pain
Holding the flame till we die
Yeah, keeping the flame till we die
