I don't want any trouble. i don't want to make any waves.

I don't want any conscience. and i don't wanna be brave.

I've kept my distance. my feelings have never been shown.

I know that i've been walking fences,

Denied what i have known.



I carry chains. (i carry chains.)

Heavy, heavy chains. (chains that are made.)

I carry chains (i carry chains) 'round my feet.

I feel the weight (i feel the weight.)

Chains are the different things that should not be hanging on me.



I put my conscience under a stone, the stone under the ground.

Walked from where i had left it. i hoped it couldn't be found.

My conscience persisted. it's a haunted seed i have sown.

Calls me out from the distance

And it just won't leave me alone.



I carry chains. (i carry chains.)

Chains that are made. (chains that are made.)

I carry heavy chains. (i carry chains.)

Talk about the weight. (i feel the weight.)

Chains are the temporary things that should not be hanging on me.
