| Angel of death and mercy, come take me from this cage.
|
| Cause these four walls and iron bars have been witness to the rage.
|
| Of a thousand broken hearts in chains.
|
| Like a cripple without his cane, a king without a crown.
|
| The passion that once consumed me,
|
| Has turned to ashes on the ground.
|
| All that I’ve been given I give it to you.
|
| I can’t stand here watching you fail to tell the truth.
|
| Somebody break these chains.
|
| Wrapped around this heart.
|
| I don’t want you leaving,
|
| I’m begging for mercy, oh to break these chains.
|
| Oh heaven help me now,
|
| Trade these shackles for a crown.
|
| And I’m on my way, way down.
|
| Warm the ice that fills my veins, pumping till I’m numb.
|
| Lead me out of the darkness where it is so hard to escape from.
|
| All that I’ve been given I give it to you.
|
| I can’t stand here watching you fail to tell the truth.
|
| Somebody break these chains.
|
| Wrapped around this heart.
|
| I don’t want you leaving,
|
| I’m begging for mercy, oh to break these chains.
|
| Oh heaven help me now,
|
| Trade these shackles for a crown.
|
| And I’m on my way, way down.
|
| Listen
|
| Bless my heart and bless my soul,
|
| You can set my ass on fire.
|
| Momma won’t you call me a doctor
|
| Cause my temperature rising higher and higher.
|
| Dip me in that cold muddy water, I think I need to be saved.
|
| Unless someone breaks these chains
|
| All that I’ve been given I give it to you.
|
| I can’t stand here watching you fail to tell the truth.
|
| Somebody break these chains.
|
| Wrapped around this heart.
|
| I don’t want you leaving,
|
| I’m begging for mercy, oh to break these chains.
|
| Oh heaven help me now,
|
| Trade these shackles for a crown.
|
| And I’m on my way |
