Chains Lyrics by Tony Catt

Nice To Meet You, Don’t Come Close

2019

Gotta work in a coffee store
You don't want this thing no more
Wanna make some songs tonight
Change your clothes turn off the light
Gotta learn these stupid words
Every other sounds just more absurd
Wanna mix some liquids close the door
Break the glass and spill some on the floor
Gotta pick up dirty stones
They can hurt your neck or break your bones
Wanna see the light just going through
Shining all around the small square room

Wish you never were the same again
Wake up and look around

And all
Those things
You do
Those things
You say
Will stay
Like all those unlovely stains
So try to be someone you're not
Try to learn what you forgot
Try to lose your brains
Or if it's hard then just try to lose your chains

Gotta always paint your face
Feeling guilty, feeling so disgraced
Wanna stay at home an play some games
Dont have to take part in this race
Gotta mess with another man
Telling you that you have to pretend
Wanna punch him in his face
Sometimes there's just no other way

Wish you never have to change again
Lie down and close your eyes

And all
Those things
You do
Those things
You say
Will stay
Like all those unlovely stains
So try to be someone you're not
Try to learn what you forgot
Try to lose your brains
Or if it's hard then just try to lose your chains

You dont have to be so kind
You dont have to be so fine
You dont have to be so tired and lonely
Cause you know that all
Those things
You do
Those things
You say
Will stay
Like all those unlovely stains
So try to be someone you're not
Try to learn what you forgot
Try to lose your brains
Or if it's hard then just try to lose your chains
