Chains of Love (On Prisoners of War)

I live in a town Where ambition is currency Everyone is an advertisement for themselves What a time to be alive What a time to be ambivalent Still when I look at it all I just have to laugh There's a restlessness that lingers on the inside And an emptiness that hangs unseen in plain sight I caught a glimpse Into the eyes of America It looked right back And this is what it said It said we've all gone fucking mad 'Cause I don't know what's real I'm a stranger in my own home You gotta give up on the past and the ghosts that haunt this place To make good on the future you gotta look the present in the face Look out now, I know it looks like there's nothing to live for But you'll forgive the drought with a deluge at the door Tired and uninspired, but inside I know burns a fire Bound by chains of love on prisoners of war Bound by chains of love on prisoners of war
