Tear Down The Shackles

Locked in these chains around me
That wont let me go
I'm tied to the fire that surrounds me
And encases my soul.
The embers are dying around me now
It won't be too long.
And here will lie the shell of a man
Just a body his heart will be gone

Untie me and tear the shackles down
Untie me and be my eyes
Untie me and tear the shackles down
Untie me, give me back my pride

Locked in this cage feeling helpless
A cold steel frame
My body lies battered and twisted
My heart feels so lame
I look at the bed that you made for me
On which I must lie
Here is the debris of your love and trust
I wish I could die

Untie me and tear the shackles down
Untie me and let me go
Untie me and tear the shackles down
Untie me, I've got to know.
