Paper Chains [SSC7, USA] 🏆#14

SSC7 🏆#14 ⛓️ Paper Chains ⛓️ ----------- LYRICS----------- I open my eyes and wipe away the dust. A late night again, the tears got me drunk. The sun's been shining but the shades always closed. The shadows comfort me it seems... A cold shower deep, an unforgiven touch. The grooves in my face won't heal this funk. Will time make it go away? or will the pain always seep? I tied a loose knot at the end of my rope. And I'm one slip away from losing all hope. They wait for me at the bottom to remind me of all my mistakes... - They say celebrate... There's no joy if there's no pain. Let it rain, Let it rain and wash it all away... - I can't break, these Paper Chains. They seem to grow stronger every time that I wake. I sit in silence, oh what can I say? I'd give myself a second chance if it wasn't too late. My heart aches with every key I play. I raise an empty glass and and I patiently wait... Medicate my melancholy with a bit of shame. And sit with myself as the daylight breaks... - I lace up my shoes and roll up my sleeves. My bed left unmade and the ghosts never leave. Just uninvited guests that always stay and wait for my return... A knot in my chest, a slow gentle squeeze. Its all just enough to bring me to my knees. Will I ever break these Paper Chains? or will the guilt always burn? Every thought drains every drop from my head. Until my life becomes a darkened vignette. I can't seem to forgive me at all and I'm afraid it will treat me the same... - They say celebrate... There's no joy if there's no pain. Let it rain, Let it rain and wash it all away... - I can't break, these Paper Chains. They seem to grow stronger every time that I wake. I sit in silence, oh what can I say? I'd give myself a second chance if it wasn't too late. My heart aches with every key I play. I raise an empty glass and and I patiently wait... Medicate my melancholy with a bit of shame. And sit with myself as the daylight breaks... - It's been too long... And I'm too far gone... Rolling with thunder storms... Yet the feelings too strong... But I remain calm... Lift my head to God... The Paper Chains come along, But I will carry on... - They say celebrate... There's no joy if there's no pain. Let it rain, Let it rain and wash it all away... - I can't break, these Paper Chains. They seem to grow stronger every time that I wake. I sit in silence, oh what can I say? I'd give myself a second chance if it wasn't too late. My heart aches with every key I play. I raise an empty glass and and I patiently wait... Medicate my melancholy with a bit of shame. And sit with myself as the daylight breaks... ------------ END------------ Thanks for listening and I hope you enjoyed! Please Like and Comment Let me know what you thought!
