I have a chain around my heart,
And shackles and cuffs.
It tightens in the morning,
It tightens in the evening.
It tightens when I see you,
It tightens when I don’t.
And clenching and squeezing,
Painfully hurt.
Only opened by the key of happiness,
But my god, happiness is so fleeting.
And I’m here drowning,
In my own tears.
