- Demons In Chains -

The eyes with chains around the feet,
they can never see the beauty

Beyond the sounds, colors and smell
you get sucked up by the darkness

Sweep away dust and rat feces
the shadows of evil demons

The rainbow is a miracle,
next moment will never come back

Please give life back to these dark eyes
Escape from your inconstant mind

I swear: even the weeds will shine
This song will blow away with time
