Chains Lyrics by Soul Asylum

Chains Lyrics

    The mirror on the wall it tells no lies
    And oh i don't like what i see
    I see a woman there i watch her as she cries
    And the woman isn't really me

    But every day i get up, calm down, give up, hang around
    Look for you, hold me, tender, set me free
    I need to feel you put your hands around me
    Day in, day out it's the same old story

    You're out there on your own
    Is he worth the price you pay
    Got you in his chains
    Will he set you free someday

    I wish i didn't feel this way i can't get nothing done
    And all i want to do is go to sleep
    Though i lie in bed for hours i cannot close my eyes
    And lonely days turn into lonely weeks

    But every day i get up, calm down, give up, hang around
    Look for you, tender, hold me, set me free
    I need to feel you put your hands around me
    Day in, day out, it's the same old story

    You're out there on your own
    Is he worth the price you pay
    Got you in his chains
    Will he set you free someday

    Every now and then i think things might be all right
    And i think i see a light beyond the door
    Just as i approach it disappears again
    And everything seems darker than before

    But every day i get up, calm down, give up, hang around
    Look for you, hold me, tender, set me free
    I need to feel you put your hands around me
    Day in, day out, it's the same old story

    You're out there on your own
    Is he worth the price you pay
    Got you in his chains
    Will he set you free someday
