The Chain - Lyrics by Mr.Big

I hear their voices inside my head

There's no denying it's my private hell as

I lie in bed

I take a look around and see myself

In twenty years will i be them

I've taken all i can stand

Afraid of what kind of man i am

Does everything stay the same

Or will i break the chain

Secrets, emotions, and wounds concealed

Spirits are broken, the deepest scars that i'll never heal

They'll be back handed down from father to son

A closet full of skeletons

I've taken all i can stand

Afraid of what kind of man i am

Does everything stay the same

Or will i break the chain

I will get by

With a little understanding

'cause it's my own life after all

I've taken all i can stand

Afraid of what kind of man i am

Does everything stay the same

Or will i break the chain
