Chains Lyrics

Chains, chains, chains
We're linked to each other with chains
Is it 'cause I'm you
And you're me
And we're chained
Linked to each other with chains

Everywhere - wow!

I looked everywhere
Everywhere I find you
In the shape of thoughts
In an attitude
In the party crowd
In the march on youth
I looked everywhere
Everywhere I find you

This is romantic
This is gigantic

Chains, chains, chains
We're linked to each other with chains
Is it 'cause I'm you
And you're me
And we're chained
Linked to each other with chains

You're in everyone
Everyone is you
In the 1, 2, 3
In the 4, 5, too
In the things you say
In the words you use
You're in everyone
Everyone is fantastic!

Chains, chains, chains
We're linked to each other with chains
Is it 'cause I'm you
And you're me
And we're chained
Linked to each other with chains

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Cover art for Chains lyrics by Robots in Disguise

On a live recording of this song I (mis)heard Sue saying 'chains makes me think of twins' (see link below) and so I interpret that the lyrics are about chains of DNA. Since we are all made of DNA - we are all linked and identical twins are genetically the same (thus the line 'I'm you and you're me'). Yet there is special, perhaps deeper link between them (the attitude, the words they use etc).

Lovely song :)
