Текст песни: Lion in Chains + перевод

When I think thoughts about my hometown

I sometimes feel like I’ll never get back

On the brink, a shadow covers over

Whatever future I thought that I could have

At the sink, I wait for the cold water

I burned myself here one too many times

At the lab, they’ve turned off the hot water heater

From the month of June right through until July

A lion in chains above them

Passing slowly the hours of my discontent

I felt a new craze welling up behind my eyes

In a flood of tears, I gave myself to the heavens

Where once a fire of anxious feelings forced me not to cry

A lion in chains above me

Through my window and down across my sightlines

To the river where the evening thrush resides

Along the water winding through woods and open fields

My imagination pony rides

A lion in chains above him

Sleeping at the crest of a titanic crashing wave

I fell to strange dreams of jealousy and the know-it-all crown

I wandered blindly through the field; I wandered blindly and alone

But could not find another one for my protector and my guide

They’ve all got lions in chains above them

Steep is the cost when the dreams of love are broken

Grueling the workshop where they’re put back together in time

I saw gold mines and a different kind of token

Here at the arcade I spent about 45 000 dimes

When I think thoughts about my hometown

I sometimes feel like I’ll never get out of here

I feel a warm breath and a deadly uncaring power at the back of my neck

And I wonder what it is that keeps me here
