Man In Chains Lyrics

I�ve only myself to blame,
Now that I�m tangled up in chains,
So you say, ooh, so you say
Caught in this human cage,
Trapped, and I�m fired up with rage
And somebody�s got to pay
I can never talk about it,
I can never say what I want to say
So I�ll take your tip and I�ll bite my lip
And hope it goes away
You say I�m a man of straw
Well, baby, I�m gonna break your law
Then it�s war, ooh, yes it�s war
Love on a thin white line,
Love that was just a waste of time,
Oh, not anymore
I can feel it coming at me,
I can feel it coming like the wind
But, I�m locked away and I�m bound to stay,
So no one can get in
I�m a man in chains, I�m a man in chains
Oh, I�m a man in chains, I�m a man in chains
I only pray that before I die,
Just like a phoenix I will rise and fly
Tell me who�s to blame,
Oh, I�m a man, now I�m a man in chains
There must be a reason why
You�re pulling the wool down on my eyes
It�s a lie, it�s a lie
Dragging this ball and chain,
Oh, how long can I take this pain?
But somebody has to try, yeah
Oh, I can feel the pressure on me,
I can feel it taking me from the start
Sticks and stones will smash my bones,
But never break my heart
I�m a man in chains, I�m a man in chains
Oh, I�m a man in chains, I�m a man in chains
I only pray that before I die,
Just like a phoenix I will rise and fly
Tell me who�s to blame,
Oh, I�m a man, now I�m a man in chains
I can never talk about it,
Oh, I can never say what I want to say
So I�ll take your tip and I�ll bite my lip
And hope it goes away
I�m a man in chains, I�m a man in chains
Oh, I�m a man in chains, I�m a man in chains
I only pray that before I die,
Just like a phoenix I will rise and fly
Tell me who�s to blame,
Oh, I�m a man, now I�m a man in chains
