I can’t press rewind,
can’t change my mind,
time has already spoken.
The shadows won’t tell,
won’t break this spell,
I can’t fix what is broken.
//I boxed my heart and taped it shut,
put plasters over every cut,
started running through the rain,
just to find myself in chains.//
//Forbidden pulses start to kick,
babe, you know you make me sick,
I started at the stairs again,
just to find myself in chains.//
I’ve tried to grow,
to take it slow,
ignored the gaping hole.
But couldn’t hide,
empty inside,
just a talking doll.
//Thought by painting the pictures black,
our love wouldn’t come circling back,
turns out it’s winged, feathers of pain,
just to find myself in chains.//
//Melted the memories, froze the heat,
couldn’t make myself complete,
I poured each teardrop down the drain,
just to find myself in chains.//
