[Verse 1] Steel bars wrapped in velvet lies Whisper soft where the spirit dies We cling we crawl we don't let go Safe in shadows we claim to know [Prechorus] Afraid to leap afraid to fall But what if there's no edge at all [Chorus] Chains of comfort hold us tight We shun the fire we fear the light Rather bleed in what we know Than face the winds of change that blow [Verse 2] Golden cage with a broken key Call it freedom call it free Shattered mirrors can't reflect The faces we chose to neglect [Prechorus] Afraid to see afraid to burn But what if pain's how we learn [Chorus] Chains of comfort hold us tight We shun the fire we fear the light Rather bleed in what we know Than face the winds of change that blow [Verse 3] Lullabies of rust and stone Sing us into the overgrown Every step a borrowed breath Each silence echoing a death [Prechorus] Afraid to wake, afraid to see But what if truth could set us free [Chorus] Chains of comfort hold us tight We drown the spark to dim the night Better ghosts in halls we've known Than brave a world we've never owned [Outro] But somewhere past the fear we feed A flicker waits, a buried seed And if we dare to let it grow It just might lead where we won't go
