(Verse 1)
In the shadows I linger, with a weight on my soul,
Forgotten my dreams, lost control.
Every bill that arrives feels like a chain,
Binding me tighter, through worry and pain.
(Chorus)
These debt chains, they pull me low,
A heavy heart in a world of woe.
Running in circles, can’t find my way,
Hoping for dawn to replace this gray.
(Verse 2)
I remember the days when I danced without care,
But that light in my spirit has vanished in air.
Conversations in whispers, I hide from the truth,
Each lie that I tell keeps the burdens aloof.
(Chorus)
These debt chains, they pull me low,
A heavy heart in a world of woe.
Running in circles, can’t find my way,
Hoping for dawn to replace this gray.
(Bridge)
Trying to breathe in this suffocating silence,
Searching for hope in the midst of this violence.
I dream of a future where I can be free,
Oh, how I long for the pain to just cease.
(Chorus)
These debt chains, they pull me low,
A heavy heart in a world of woe.
Running in circles, can’t find my way,
Hoping for dawn to replace this gray.
(Outro)
So I’ll sing out the sorrow, I’ll scream out the fear,
One day I’ll break free, I’ll find my way here.
These debt chains won’t last, I’ll rise from the ground,
In the echoes of freedom, my voice will resound.
