                                              You gave me such pretty chains 
They bind me up, lock me away 
Treat me like I'm your slave 
Nothing was ever the same 
When you lied and said 
You loved me like no other 

Such pretty chains 
I wear in this gilded cage 
Surrounded by your beautiful lies 
And your cruel smiles 


I've been locked away for years now 
Lost to the ways of your cruel fate 
Nothing can sate 
Your pure, unending rage 

You've given me such pretty chains 
I wish I could return them,
Spread my aching wings again 
Embrace myself once more 
Be free from the pretty chains 

Bound by love, locked in by blood 
You said you'd never be bound 
Not to anyone, not to me 
And yet ....
Yet you have bound me 
For years and years 


Such pretty chains....

And yet, I want to break them
