Chains and Locks
Unveiling Vulnerability: Chains and Locks Unlocked
Lyrics
I can't tell you I'm good cause I'm not
I cannot claim to be in a good state because I am not
I can't tell you I'm fine
I cannot assert that I am fine
Wish I'd hidden my chains and my locks
I regret not concealing my emotional burdens and constraints
Guess it's too late to lie
It's too late to be dishonest about my feelings
Usually I just fake it and make it
Normally, I pretend and endure
Usually I just cry on my own
Typically, I suffer silently
Till one night when I'm shaking and breaking
Until a night when I am overwhelmed and breaking down
And my chains and my locks are on show
Revealing my emotional burdens and constraints for all to see
Oh you caught me on a bad night, sad night
You found me in a moment of sadness and vulnerability
Oh you caught me when I'm not right
You found me when I am not emotionally well
Oh you caught me on a bad night, sad night
You found me in a moment of sadness and vulnerability
Oh you caught me when I'm not right
You found me when I am not emotionally well
I keep giving it all that I've got
I continue to give my best until I collapse in despair
Till I fall in the dirt
I'm hindered by my emotional burdens and constraints
I'm held back by my chains and my locks
Vulnerability is painful
Vulnerability hurts
I make mistakes, utter regrettable words, and break things
I get lost and I say things and break things
I am haunted by every mistake I've made
I am haunted by every regret
Eventually, I stop changing and resort to pretending
Soon enough I'm not changing I'm faking
Emotional burdens and constraints surround me
All my chains and my locks round my neck
You found me in a moment of sadness and vulnerability
Oh you caught me on a bad night, sad night
You found me when I am not emotionally well
Oh you caught me when I'm not right
You found me in a moment of sadness and vulnerability
Oh you caught me on a bad night, sad night
You found me when I am not emotionally well
Oh you caught me when I'm not right
I'm not in the mood for positive thoughts
I'm not in the mood for happy thoughts
I feel foolish, but you insist that I'm not
I feel like a fool, you say I'm not
My past is revealed, and I'm in disbelief
My past is set loose, and I'm in shock
You've now witnessed my struggles, my emotional burdens, and constraints
You've now seen my noose, my chains and locks
My emotional burdens and constraints are exposed
Oh my chains and my locks, lying thoughts
My emotional burdens and constraints are deceptive thoughts
Oh my chains and my locks, tying knots
My emotional burdens and constraints create entanglements
Oh my chains and my locks, lying thoughts
My emotional burdens and constraints are deceptive thoughts
Oh my chains and my locks, tying knots
My emotional burdens and constraints create entanglements
Oh my chains and my locks, lying thoughts
My emotional burdens and constraints are deceptive thoughts
Oh my chains and my locks, tying knots
My emotional burdens and constraints create entanglements
Oh my chains and my locks, lying thoughts
My emotional burdens and constraints are deceptive thoughts
Oh my chains and my locks, tying knots
My emotional burdens and constraints create entanglements
Oh you caught me on a bad night, sad night
You found me in a moment of sadness and vulnerability
Oh you caught me when I'm not right
You found me when I am not emotionally well
Oh you caught me on a bad night, sad night
You found me in a moment of sadness and vulnerability
Oh you caught me when I'm not right
You found me when I am not emotionally well
I'm not in the mood for happy thoughts
I'm not in the mood for positive thoughts
I feel like a fool, you say I'm not
I feel foolish, but you insist that I'm not
My past is set loose, and I'm in shock
My past is revealed, and I'm in disbelief
You've now seen my noose, my chains and locks
You've now witnessed my struggles, my emotional burdens, and constraints
