You Are Chains - Secret Machines

You are chains when you are chained

With a chain with an iron ring

Bound to a rock on which you stand

So large you can’t see from its surface

Covered in atmosphere dust

Blinded by wonder and lust

And you never noticed your chains

Well, neither had I

I knew I had crashed here

I never knew why

'Til somebody told me

I was too high to leave

I fell to the floor

And crawled back asleep

'Til early this morning

Turned following evening

If you hadn’t come here when you did

I might still believe I was never in chains
