this is just my first thought on it.
but I believe that this song is about someone who was happy, and loving [the first and second lines], who fell into the arms of someone controlling [hence the chains].
with the controlling behavior, and what-not, theyre becoming cold, and angry inside [from the "its burning me up inside" through the rest of the song].
the eyes arent bright and loving anymore.
they are filled with dull anger and sorrow.
