You Are Chains Lyrics
You are chains
When you're chained
With a chain
With an iron ring
Bound to a rock
On which you stand
So large, you can't see from its surface
Covered in atmosphere dust
Blinded by wonder and lust
And you never noticed your chains
Well, neither had I
I knew I had crashed here
I never knew why
Til somebody told me
I was too high to leave
I fell to the floor
And crawled back asleep
Til early this morning
Turned following evening
If you hadn't come here when you did
I might still believe I was never in chains
When you're chained
With a chain
With an iron ring
Bound to a rock
On which you stand
So large, you can't see from its surface
Covered in atmosphere dust
Blinded by wonder and lust
And you never noticed your chains
I knew I had crashed here
I never knew why
Til somebody told me
I was too high to leave
I fell to the floor
And crawled back asleep
Til early this morning
Turned following evening
If you hadn't come here when you did
I might still believe I was never in chains

Good band. For this song, there is something holding him down, whether it is drugs or a relationship, either way he is realizing it now.
I came here to see what other people thought this was about, as I didn't have a clue! Unfortunately, not even the lyrics were here...
