Steel chains shine
On the moonlight
When I am trying to breathe,
Those chains spine
Around my heart,
They’re down around my feet.
They took my hands,
They pull me down
To the gray and cold floor,
They catch my steps,
They close my mouth,
I hardly find the door.
I found the door,
But where’s a key?
The key’s inside of me,
So I can roar,
Can only feel
Someone who’ll make me free.
