I just don’t believe, I’m ready for today
This paranoid pain is coming back again
Oh, that picture, momma placed
By the window, oh, how I hate my face

And there’s people all outside, behind the curtains silver lines
With all their lies they’re all like mine, all like mine
But, when the wind blows
I’ll go, I’ll go

And I will be released
Break these chains set me free
And I will be released
Break these chains

I can think of brighter days, they were golden in a way
Words were not this grey, but now prices will be paid
When I walk in the paths
Of all you guilty ones, someday

'Cause I cannot help my heart when it's beating in the dark
Afraid next time, I won't cry, I won't cry
And when the times change
I'll go away, I'm away

And I will be released
Break these chains set me free
And I will be released
Break these chains

Like a pilot I will fly
Way up in the sky
I’ll be free
I’ll be high, high, high

And I will be released
Break these chains, break these chains

So I can be released, praying on my knees
That I can be released, that I can be released, oh
So I can be released, praying on my knees
That I can be released, that I can be released

Then I will be released
Break these chains set me free
And I will be released
Break these chains set me free

Like a pilot I will fly
Way up in the sky
I’ll be free
I’ll be high, high, high

And I will be released
Break these chains, break these chains

I can think of brighter days, they were golden in a way
Words were not this grey, but I can break these chains
