Break These Chains Lyrics by Clare Maguire

Light After Dark

2011

[Verse 1]
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
[Pre-Chorus]
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
[Chorus]
And I will be released
Break these chains, set me free
And I will be released
Break these chains
[Verse 2]
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
[Pre-Chorus]
'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
[Chorus]
And I will be released
Break these chains, set me free
And I will be released
Break these chains, set me free
[Post-Chorus]
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
[Bridge]
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
[Chorus]
That I will be released
Break these chains, set me free
And I will be released
Break these chains, set me free
[Post-Chorus]
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
[Outro]
I can think of brighter days, they were golden in a way
Words were not this grey, but I can break these chains
