These rusty chains are holdin' me so tight
Yes, these rusty chains are holdin' me so tight
I try to break away, but I can't win the fight
Every rattle tells me I can't be free
Yes, every rattle tells me I can't be free
These chains of sorrow got the best of me
Rusty chains, rattlin' in my soul
Rusty chains, they won't let me go
I've been fightin' all my life, but the rust won't fade
Every broken promise is the chain love made
Rusty chains, bindin' me in pain
Rusty chains, forever I remain
