lyrics

CHAINS (D. Christie)

Take these chains
From around my heart
Let’s run out into the rain
Maybe we can start again
Step on out
Shed this skin
Shake these tethers
This is where we begin

This is where we begin
This is where we begin
No matter who you are
Or where you’ve been
This is where we begin

Time has come
To set things right
Kick at the darkness
And let the light pour in
Gonna lose these blues
Shake this sin
The monkey on your back
This is where we begin

This is where we begin
This is where we begin
No matter who you are
Or where you’ve been
This is where we begin

When it feels you’re on your own
And your soul is shattered glass
Life’s in the hole
And you feel like you’ve lost your way
You keep on drowning in the past

This is where we begin
This is where we begin
No matter who you are
Or where you’ve been
This is where we begin
This is where we begin
This is where we begin
No matter who you are
Or where you’ve been
This is where we begin
