Dear Mr. Chain

+ Show full styles

I started writing Dear Mr. Chain while I’m on vacation after hearing an infectious jazz groove that just wouldn’t leave my head. Somehow that rhythm turned into Mr. Chain—not a person, but something that quietly follows you around. To me, those chains can be anxiety, stress, self-doubt, or anything that keeps adding another link until you forget what it feels like to be free. I hope everyone who hears this finds their own Mr. Chain. Whatever your Mr. Chain is… I hope one day you can tell it the same thing: Just let me go.

You found me hiding from the pouring rain, Wrapped me up so I could hide the pain. You said, “Stay here, The world won’t know.” Now every road I see Won’t let me go. You wear no face, Still you know mine. You always know Where to find me. You pull I bend You whisper “Don’t try again.” One more link One more chain… Dear Mr. Chain Dear Mr. Chain Dear Mr. Chain Just let me go… Dear Mr. Chain Dear Mr. Chain Dear Mr. Chain I’ve carried you too long… You call yourself a faithful friend, But every road comes to an end. You steal tomorrow One fear at a time… Until the mirror Isn‘t mine. You fill my head With borrowed doubt. You lock the door From the inside out. You called yourself protection… But prison walls Always sound like safety Until… Someone reaches For the door. Dear Mr. Chain (Dear Mr. Chain) Dear Mr. Chain (Dear Mr. Chain) Dear Mr. Chain (Dear Mr. Chain) Just let me go (Let him go…) Dear Mr. Chain (Dear Mr. Chain) Dear Mr. Chain (Dear Mr. Chain) Dear Mr. Chain (Dear Mr. Chain) You don’t own me anymore (Not anymore) Dear Mr. Chain (Dear Mr. Chain) Dear Mr. Chain (Dear Mr. Chain) Dear Mr. Chain (Dear Mr. Chain) Goodbye… Dear Mr. Chain… Just let me go…
