Chains

In slow decay, we release the anchor
Only yesterday, we let the demon loose
I brush the damage aside
And gather all my strength to lift the noose

Release the chains that bind
I'm so afraid of what that girl would find
And her memory lingering on my mind
My heaven tonight I won't forgive her this time

Still the anchor digs to the ocean floor
The guilt will eat me inside to the very core
Could compassion be the only cure?
Could compassion be the only cure? I can't take this anymore

Release the chains that bind (release the anchor)
I'm so afraid of what that girl would find (let the demon loose)
And her memory lingering on my mind (release the anchor)
My heaven tonight I won't forgive her this time
Forgive her this time

And all I do, I can still feel you
And all I do, I can still feel you
Let go

Release the chains that bind (release the anchor)
I'm so afraid of what that girl would find (let the demon loose)
And her memory lingering on my mind (release the anchor)
My heaven tonight I won't forgive her this time
Forgive her this time

Chains that bind
I'm so afraid of what that girl would find
And her memory lingering on my mind
My heaven tonight I won't forgive her this time
Forgive her this time
