It's just an illusion, a trick, a trick of the light
What you now see is really out of sight
It's dark, it's evil, possessive and kind
Something that you give me keeps me alive

Both ends burning, burning so bright tonight
And my world keeps turning, turning inside out

And I can't break the chain
I've gotta break the chain
I'm trying to break the chain
God help me break the chain

I'm winning, I'm losing before I start
I pull myself together as I fall apart
I'm wise, so foolish, perceptive and blind
Something that kills keeps me alive

Both ends burning, burning so bright tonight
My world keeps turning, turning inside out

And I can't break the chain
I gotta break the chain
Please help me break the chain
I wanna break the chain

Break the chain

There's no rhyme, no reason
To what I do
I just live my life before I lose
I give, I take, I throw it all away
I pick myself up and I start again

Both ends burning, burning so bright tonight
My world keeps turning, turning upside out

And I can't break the chain
God help me break the chain
I wanna break the chain
Please help me break the chain

Break the chain
Aw help me break the chain
Break the chain
God help me break the chain
