Chained To the Past
Chained to the Past
I feel it growing in my bones
it's swimming in my veins
screaming like a Salem witch
cried for pouring rains
I don't know how to stop it
it's all that still remains
unquenched like the fire
that freed me from the pains
if there's anybody out there
who does not bear the chains
the links of consequences
please lead me to the plains
the fields of acceptance
trapped deep inside our brains
