Lyrics and translation
Original
I'd rather lay down in thorns.
I'd rather drown in a stream.
I'd rather light myself on fire.
I'd rather wear all these scars. I'd rather watch my skin bleed.
In the eye of your storm.
Shattering like glass.
It's the breaking of my heart.
The chains of love are cruel. I shouldn't feel like a prisoner.
My face is turning blue.
Couldn't breathe without you here.
The chains of love are cruel.
I shouldn't feel like a prisoner.
No matter how hard I try.
I'm here so permanently, yeah. And I wait for your call.
And all the chains of love won't break.
And all the chains of love won't break.
Shattering like glass.
It's the breaking of my heart.
The chains of love are cruel.
I shouldn't feel like a prisoner.
My face is turning blue.
Couldn't breathe without you here.
The chains of love are cruel.
I shouldn't feel like a prisoner.
Oh, oh, oh, oh. Oh, oh, oh, oh. Oh, oh, oh, oh.
Oh yeah.
And all the chains of love won't break.
And all the chains of love won't break.
