Shackles
My pain, my tragedy, the man I used to be
These Shackles fit my wrists, still so perfectly
My fears, my hopes, my dreams, feeling's gone away
It takes much more of me, to feel some type of way
And if they wasn't so tight
I think I'd be OK
But I'm not alright
Though I wonder every day
If I'll be alright
If I'll go back to my old ways
Able to feel somethin' when I got someone around
My past, my used to be's, always in the way
My memory is killin' me, it's fixed on yesterday
My heart beats out my chest, a cage too small for me
These Shackles hold me back from how I'm s'posed to be
And if they wasn't so tight
I think I'd be OK
But I'm not alright
Though I wonder every day
If I'll be alright
If I'll go back to my old ways
Able to feel somethin' when I got someone around
And if they wasn't so tight
I think I'd be OK
But I'm not alright
And I wonder every day
These Shackles fit my wrists, still so perfectly
My fears, my hopes, my dreams, feeling's gone away
It takes much more of me, to feel some type of way
And if they wasn't so tight
I think I'd be OK
But I'm not alright
Though I wonder every day
If I'll be alright
If I'll go back to my old ways
Able to feel somethin' when I got someone around
My past, my used to be's, always in the way
My memory is killin' me, it's fixed on yesterday
My heart beats out my chest, a cage too small for me
These Shackles hold me back from how I'm s'posed to be
And if they wasn't so tight
I think I'd be OK
But I'm not alright
Though I wonder every day
If I'll be alright
If I'll go back to my old ways
Able to feel somethin' when I got someone around
And if they wasn't so tight
I think I'd be OK
But I'm not alright
And I wonder every day
