Shackled

I've been consistent but what did it bring me What did it bring me but an okay catalogue I guess There's a monster within me and it's never enough for a boy like me You tried to set me free But I'm bound and I'm shackled to this old friend called misery I try hard to listen and cut through the noise just to pick out a voice But the words sound strange and meaningless Cuz I can't relate and now all that I'm craving is a clarity But it feels so out of reach When I'm bound and I'm shackled to this old friend called misery Yeah I'm bound and I'm shackled to this old friend called misery I try so hard guess I try a little too hard But the waves keep crashing in I try so hard and if I try a little too hard It's only cause I'm never giving in Yes I've been consistent but what did it bring me What did it bring me if a distant silver lining Is shining her light right on the horizon for a boy like me How I can be freed If I'm bound and I'm shackled to this old friend called misery Yeah I'm bound and I'm shackled to this old friend called misery Yes I'm bound and I'm shackled to this old friend called misery
