A Chain Lyrics
We rose from the soil and filthy clothes
Just to give each other names we didn't want
A door that you never saw before
A faded portrait losing colors constantly
A song that you carried all alone
A parasitic anchor, or a termite-ridden orb
And I finally realized what it's worth
But I'm not sure which is worse
Is this a blessing or a curse?
Today we said what we had to say
So you could run for centuries
And I might follow soon
It's true, the garment's of royal blue
A flame between your fingers
And an oil lamp that dimmed
And tied to your ankle was a chain
Meant to absolve and not detain
But I never had too much to gain
A thorn, a thron in your side
I wish it was mine, and we never died
My friend, I will never apprehend
A reminscing flower
And a seven hour drive
We swore that there would be nothing more
But I could use an answer
And I'm sure that you could too
And I finally realized what it's worth
But I'm not sure which is worse
Is this a blessing or a curse?
Just to give each other names we didn't want
A door that you never saw before
A faded portrait losing colors constantly
A song that you carried all alone
A parasitic anchor, or a termite-ridden orb
And I finally realized what it's worth
But I'm not sure which is worse
Is this a blessing or a curse?
So you could run for centuries
And I might follow soon
It's true, the garment's of royal blue
A flame between your fingers
And an oil lamp that dimmed
And tied to your ankle was a chain
Meant to absolve and not detain
But I never had too much to gain
I wish it was mine, and we never died
A reminscing flower
And a seven hour drive
We swore that there would be nothing more
But I could use an answer
And I'm sure that you could too
And I finally realized what it's worth
But I'm not sure which is worse
Is this a blessing or a curse?
