And not like anything I've felt Or anything I've seen Those whose chains eat their knees Never speak of the steel Chained But just like everything I've felt Or anything I've seen Those whose mouths are involuntarily closed Feel desperate to speak And those whose mouths are open Feel desperate to never say a word again Chained Anyone can see the flesh in my ankles But I can't find those who see me Not with their eyes, but with their longing souls Feeling the lament that i sing Chained But I can't find those who should call my name And once in their lives Shout, in denial Shout, in anger Shout, in disbelief Once in their lives shout And I would answer Oh, finally, I would answer I would answer with my heart Unchained, freed, released, liberated, rescued, unbound, uncaged, saved, rescued, unfattered, unchained
