Break the Chain

I’m sinking with America All smothered by my conscience and fear I’m aching in the strangest places Can’t feel myself with distance I forget that there’s a world outside Where I can be weightless in the sunlight So many vices with me everywhere I go And they’re serving me to the lions slowly Baby I feel like I’m alone again And I’m fading, I know that this is how it ends Can you help me? Can you promise that you will carry the pain? Oh baby, ‘cause I feel I’ll never break the chain And I repeat the foolish addict’s loop The boiling over and the keeping it cool Give me the stage, God knows my life needs staging What the hell else should I do? Baby I feel like I’m alone again And I’m fading, I know that this is how it ends Can you help me? Can you promise that you will carry the pain? Oh baby, ‘cause I feel I’ll never break the chain
