*Lyrics*
Break these chains
Let them fall
Set me free
Soul and all
Break these chains

I’ve been living in this haunted house
Sleeping in a dungeon stained and bloody
This bed is like a life raft in the dark
I hold on like I’m drowning to your body
You’ve always been invincible when you’re naked
But when the fire comes too close you fake it
Your alibis of ice run through my veins

Break these chains
Let them fall
Set me free
Soul and all
Break these chains
Let me crawl
Set me free
Soul and all

You could cut the silence with a knife
Killers look away when they’re up to something
Secrets are the hiding place of lies
Ticking like a timebomb till there’s nothing
We swore to death we’d always stay together
But maybe only tombstones last forever
Say a fucking prayer for our last remains

Break these chains
Let them fall
Set me free
Soul and all
Break these chains
Let me crawl
Set me free
Soul and all
Soul and all
Soul and all

You made me believe
That true passion makes you bleed
So I stayed too long
To play your twisted games
You burned me alive
Threw a match to watch me die
Like a pyromaniac gets off on flames

Break these chains
Let them fall
Set me free
Soul and all
Break these chains
Let me crawl
Set me free
Soul and all
Break these chains
Break these chains
Break these chains
Soul and all
Break these chains
