"Shackles" lyrics

From this far away – it becomes so hard to tell
Just where I should be
I can't take anymore, just set me free

I've laid in the land of the make believe
I've drank the water with no relief
Oh, I've tried but I've never relied
On the people next to me

I can't take anymore, just set me free

Held by the shackles and chains you've created
By the love you said you had
No can't see, no nothing
But the lies you said to me

You take away all those countless dreams
I'm searching for what belongs to me
Take away all those countless dreams
I'm searching for...

You thought you knew me
You thought you knew me well
My friends all told me – that I'm just no myself
My life's been taken
My life's been taken back
Think you're mistaken – if you think I'm...

Held by the shackles and chains you've created
By the love you said you had
No can't see, no nothing
But the lies you said to me

Look at my empty soul – my misery loves company
I can't seem to break free – time is so binding

You take away all those countless dreams
I'm searching for what belongs to me
Take away all those countless dreams
I'm searching for...

When you walked in my whole world walked out
Left alone to try and figure it out

From this far away – it becomes so hard to tell
Just where I should be
I can't take anymore, just set me free
