I got shackles round my feet
They tie me to this place
They won't loosen up for love or money or anything that's in-between
They're telling me I'm not allowed to leaveYou kept telling me that I should pack up just in case
'Cause you thought that I had better things in store
I couldn't do as I was told
So I told you I didn't love you anymoreBut somehow, you saw through it all
And you took out all the dark thoughts that I think
Now you don't return any of my calls
So I guess your heart was a onetime thingI wish I could take my time
And show you that I'll be fine
'Cause I would be nothing without you
Nothing without youA couple hours into this long 13 hour drive
It's just me with the lights off and I think
I should've done better by youNow I can feel the shackles burn their way into my skin
When I turn around and try to run away from all the dark thoughts
'Cause now I have nothing to prove and no one to loseAnd next time I'll do better
'Cause if I make the same mistakes againI wish I could take my time
And show you that I'll be fine
'Cause I would be nothing without you
Nothing without youIf I had the chance to say
I'm sorry for how things changed
'Cause I would be nothing without you
Nothing without youAnd you shaped me into who I wanted to be
And you made me take a look at myself and seeI wish I could take my time
And show you that I'll be fine
Just think about how happy you could beIf I had the chance to say
I'm sorry for how I changed
'Cause I would be nothing without you
Nothing without you
