lyrics

Shattered Chains by Polytheist
I hear you, I know you, In your back, their eyes burn holes
I know that the cruelty, You do, not deserve this
What evil, inhumane, how can they truly have souls
So easy to believe, revenge passes for justice

Reclaim what you deserve,
Take it back
The chains are broken

There’s nothing wrong with you, You don’t need to be like them
I know its frustrating. Be strong you’ll win in the end.
Don’t hate them, pity them. They are slaves, oblivious.
Their desperate, acceptance. They fear the world’s disgust.

I hear you, I know you, In your back, their eyes burn holes
I know that the cruelty, You do, not deserve this
What evil, inhumane, how can they truly have souls
So easy to believe, revenge passes for justice

Reclaim what you deserve,
Take it back
The chains are broken

There’s nothing wrong with you, You don’t need to be like them
I know its frustrating. Be strong you’ll win in the end.
Don’t hate them, pity them. They are slaves, oblivious.
Their desperate, acceptance. They fear the world’s disgust.

I hear you, I know you, In your back, their eyes burn holes
I know that the cruelty, You do, not deserve this
What evil, inhumane, how can they truly have souls
So easy to believe, revenge passes for justice

The chains are broken.
