"In Chains" Lyrics

Angel of death and mercy, come take me from this cage.
Cuz these four walls and iron bars have been witness to the rage.
Of a thousand broken hearts in chains.
Like a cripple without his cane, a king without a crown.
The passion that once consumed me, has turned to ashes on the ground.
All that I've been given, I give it to you.
I can't stand here watching you fail to tell the truth.

Somebody break these chains.
Wrapped around this heart.
I don't want you leaving, I'm begging for mercy, honey break these chains.
Oh heaven help me now, trade the shackle for a crown.
And I'm on my way, way down.

Warm the ice that fills my veins, pumping till I'm numb.
Lead me out of the darkness where its so hard to escape from.
All that I've been given, I give it to you.
I can't stand here watching you fail to tell the truth.

Listen, Bless my heart and bless my soul, you can set my ass on fire.
Momma won't you call me a doctor cause my temperature
is rising higher and higher.
Dip me in that cold muddy water, I think I need to be saved.
Unless someone breaks these chains.
All that I've been given, I give it to you.
I can't stand here watching you fail to tell the truth.
