Angel of death and mercy, come take me from this cage.
Cause these four walls and iron bars have been witness to the rage.
Of a thousand broken hearts in chains.
Like a cripple without his cane, a king without a crown.
The passion that once consumed me,
Has turned to ashes on the ground.
All that I've been given I give it to you.
I can't stand here watching you fail to tell the truth.
Somebody break these chains.
Wrapped around this heart.
I don't want you leaving,
I'm begging for mercy, oh to break these chains.
Oh heaven help me now,
Trade these shackles for a crown.
And I'm on my way, way down.
verse 2
Warm the ice that fills my veins, pumping till I'm numb.
Lead me out of the darkness where it is so hard to escape from.
All that I've been given I give it to you.
I can't stand here watching you fail to tell the truth.
Somebody break these chains.
Wrapped around this heart.
I don't want you leaving,
I'm begging for mercy, oh to break these chains.
Oh heaven help me now,
Trade these shackles for a crown.
And I'm on my way, way down.
Bridge
Bless my heart and bless my soul,
You can set my ass on fire.
Momma won't you call me a doctor
Cause my temperature rising higher and higher.
Dip me in that cold muddy water, I think I need to be saved.
Unless someone breaks these chains
All that I've been given I give it to you.
I can't stand here watching you fail to tell the truth.
Somebody break these chains.
Wrapped around this heart.
I don't want you leaving,
I'm begging for mercy, oh to break these chains.
Oh heaven help me now,
Trade these shackles for a crown.
And I'm on my way, way down.
