There’s a madman in the corner of your eye He likes to prey – into your sunlight He wants to burst into the street with you and I A world of shadows and rain He’s seen what love is… He wants to pay you back with guilt
He lies to you he won’t let you be He’s got your Chains of Misery He won’t be still till he’s turned your key He holds your Chains of Misery He’s got your Chains of Misery
There’s a prophet in the gutter in the street He says “You’re damned!” – And you believe him… He’s got a vision but it shines out through your eyes A world of hatred and fear… He felt what love means…
He lies to you he won’t let you be He’s got your Chains of Misery He won’t be still till he’s turned your key He holds your Chains of Misery He’s got your Chains of Misery (repeat)
It’s only love that holds the key to your heart… It’s only love…
He lies to you he won’t let you be He’s got your Chains of Misery He won’t be still till he’s turned your key He holds your Chains of Misery He’s got your Chains of Misery
He lies to you he won’t let you be He’s got your Chains of Misery He won’t be still till he’s turned your key He holds your Chains of Misery He’s got your Chains of Misery
