Won't you take one link from this misery chain?
Keep it to remind you of a long forgotten time or a place
So that you recognize its shape when it's near
Any time or place this misery chain should appearTake the locks and shackles
And they'll call off it down
Shine a light upon
Every shadow, every acre of ground
The hidden corner on
In whole around
Any way you feel this misery chain
Could be foundAnd when we're gone
And it's all said and done what we believe
The story's fold
Will they speak of us?
Well, God only knows
What those words will beAnd if I should fall
From the top of the world
To the depths below
So far below what I believe could exist
Down further still will be
The one who hides the key
And dares to try to put this misery chain on meAnd now we're gone
And it's all said and done what we believe
The story's fold
We'll ? gallows and noose
Where those worlds will beWon't you take one link from this misery chain?
Keep it to remind you of a long forgotten time or a place
So that you recognize it to let understood
That every trace of this misery chain is gone for good
Till' every trace of this misery chain is gone for good
