Lyrics

It's just an illusion, a trick, a trick of the light
What you now see is really out of sight
It's dark, it's evil, possessive and kind
Something that you give me keeps me alive
Both hands burnin', burnin' so bright tonight
And my world keeps turnin', turnin' inside out
And I can't break the chain
I gotta break the chain
I'm tryna break the chain
God, help me break the chain
Alright
I'm winnin', I'm losin' before I start
Pull myself together as I fall apart
I'm wise, so foolish, perceptive and blind
Somethin' that kills, keeps me alive
Both ends burnin', burnin' so bright tonight
My world keeps turnin', turnin' inside out
And I can't break the chain
I gotta break the chain
Please help me break the chain
I wanna break the chain
Break the chain (chain, chain, chain)
Break the chain, chain, chain, chain
Break the chain
Do it, do it
There's no rhyme, no reason to what I do
I just live my life before I lose
I give, I take, I throw it all away
I pick myself up and I start again
Both ends burnin', burnin' so bright tonight
My world keeps turnin', turnin' upside out
And I can't break the chain
God, help me break the chain
I've gotta break the chain
Please help me break the chain
Break the chain
God, help me break the chain
Break the chain
God, help me break the chain
Woah, woah, woah
Break the chain, woah, woah, woah
Break the chain, woah, woah, woah
Break the chain, woah, woah, woah
Break the chain...
