Chains of Love Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'd rather lay down in thorns
I'd rather drown in a stream
I'd rather light myself on fire
I'd rather wear all these scars
I'd rather watch my skin bleed
In the eye of your storm
(I can't let go)
[Chorus]
Shattering like glass
Yes, they're breaking up my heart
The chains of love are cruel
I shouldn't feel like a prisoner
My face is turning blue
Can't breathe without you here
The chains of love are cruel
I shouldn't feel like a prisoner
[Verse 2]
No matter how hard I try
I'm here so permanently, yeah
And I wait for your call
(I can't let go)
[Refrain]
I know the chains of love won't break
I know the chains of love won't break
[Chorus]
Shattering like glass
Yes, they're breaking up my heart
The chains of love are cruel
I shouldn't feel like a prisoner
My face is turning blue
I can't breathe without you here
The chains of love are cruel
I shouldn't feel like a prisoner
[Bridge]
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh
[Outro]
I know the chains of love won't break
I know the chains of love won't break
