Lyric

Even when I show myself, or try to give a fright

You just stare me down with eyes so calm and bright

That straight and honest gaze, it makes me flinch away

Are you calling me a coward? Is that what you want to say?

You’re living for the moment, carefree and so wild

With the spirit of a rebel, or the wonder of a child

To someone as free as you, it’s all a mystery

You’ll never understand, it’s not for you to see

I’m tied down by a chain that’s invisible to the eye

Bound to a tragic past, under a sunless sky

I can’t run away, no matter how I try

Chasing after warmth, searching for the light

You move with such a grace, through the middle of the night

I’m jealous of your heart, so light and so sincere

Are you asking what I’m doing? Is my purpose not so clear?

I’m longing for the freedom that you carry in your soul

While I’m fighting with the shadows that have taken all control

To someone as free as you, it’s all a mystery

I want to break the chain and set my spirit free

I want to leap away, into the golden day

And leave the ghosts of yesterday so far and far away

To someone as free as you, it’s all a mystery

You’ll never understand, it’s not for you to see

I’m tied down by a chain that’s invisible to the eye

Bound to a tragic past, under a sunless sky

I can’t run away, no matter how I try

Just one look at me

Yeah, you know the truth

Break these chains

To someone as free as you, it’s all a mystery

You’ll never understand, it’s not for you to see

I’m tied down by a chain that’s invisible to the eye

Bound to a tragic past, under a sunless sky

I can’t run away, no matter how I try

Invisible chains

You'll never know

Let me go
