Select language to translate this lyric
Won't you take one link from this misery chain
Keep it to remind you of a long forgotten time or a place
So that you recognize its shape, when it's near
Any time or place this misery chain should appear
Take the locks and shackles and melt all of it down
Shine a light upon every shadow, every acre of ground
The hidden corners on in overround
Anyway you feel this misery chain could be found
When we're gone and it's all said and done
What will we leave
Stories told, will they speak of us when God only knows
What those words will be
And if I should fall from the top of the world
To the debts below, so far below where our believe could exist
Down further still will be the one who hides the key
And there's to try to put these misery chains on me
When we're gone and it's all said and done
What will we leave
Stories told, will they speak of us when God only knows
What those words will be
Won't you take one link from this misery chain
Keep it to remind you of a long forgotten time or a place
So that you recognize it 'till it's understood
That every trace of this misery chain is gone for good
'Til every trace of this misery chain is gone for good
