My heart is bound in chains
On the chains are razor blades

I can not do the things I want
For things I want can undo me

If I break out from these bonds
I'll stay little in the state of free

I can not stay longer in this place
Sometimes I feel I've lost my face

I can run and burst as a firework
Or stay, burn, and work the fire

My heart is bound in chains
On the chains are razor blades
