Cradle Chain

It's a shame you're not here, on the cross in my ear

Hearing things loud and clear, come outside have no fear

And clear the smoke, get some fresh air, someone waits, someone cares

In the broad light of day, trouble seems so far away

At the top of the day, when the reign sways

Lose the cradle chain

Give it up, give it a name

The child that remains

Nothing's lost, take these chains

Take them away

Please don't ask me how I am, a little tired, a little scared

I'm not amused, not upset, don't need a leash, I'm not your pet

So loosen up, feel the breeze, let me hear, hear you breathe

It's better than, bitter now, when you breathe I love that sound

But you know I'll look after you like no one

Lose the cradle chain

Give it up, give it a name

The child that remains

Nothing's lost, take these chains

Take them away

If I die before I wake, light a fuse, bake a cake

I don't mind if I go, make it quick, don't be slow

But you know I'll remember

You like no one

Lose the cradle chain

Give it up, give it a name

The smile that remains

Will take these chains away
