Lyrics

I don't want any trouble. I don't want to make any waves
I don't want any conscience. and I don't wanna be brave
I've kept my distance. my feelings have never been shown
I know that I've been walking fences
Denied what I have known

I carry chains. (i carry chains.)
Heavy, heavy chains. (chains that are made.)
I carry chains (i carry chains) 'round my feet
I feel the weight (i feel the weight.)
Chains are the different things that should not be hanging on me

I put my conscience under a stone, the stone under the ground
Walked from where I had left it. I hoped it couldn't be found
My conscience persisted. it's a haunted seed I have sown
Calls me out from the distance
And it just won't leave me alone

I carry chains. (i carry chains.)
Chains that are made. (chains that are made.)
I carry heavy chains. (i carry chains.)
Talk about the weight. (i feel the weight.)
Chains are the temporary things that should not be hanging on me
