VELVET CHAINS

Sing it, boys
You and your velvet chains, baby (Yeah)
You and your velvet chains, baby (Oh, yeah)
You and your velvet chains, baby (Yeah)
Sing it one more time, say
You and your velvet chains, baby (Baby)
You and your velvet chains, baby (Yeah, it feels good)
You and your velvet chains, baby (Uh)

This midnight's fillin' up my mind
You come around, lose track of time
Your smile is like a loaded gun
Won't leave until there's damage done
I try to run, but you stitch my name
Into every shadow, every flame
There's a part of me just can't be tamed
And a part of you that feels the same

I ain't no sinner, but I ain't no saint
I guess that freedom's just a fancy cage
I know my sanity's the price I pay
And I pay it, I pay it

Your velvet chains, they hold me tight
In your poison touch, I come alive
I'm a prisoner screamin' out your name
But I know that you won't play it safe
Your velvet chains, they give me life
I'm not leavin' 'til I'm satisfied
I know that life won't ever be the same after you
You and your velvet chains

You and your velvet chains, baby (Yeah)
You and your velvet chains, baby (Baby)
You and your velvet chains, baby (Ha)
Your velvet chains
You and your velvet chains, baby (Oh, yeah)
You and your velvet chains, baby (Oh, yeah)
You and your velvet chains, baby (Hold me)

You pull me close just to let me burn (Let me burn)
Always for love like I'll never learn (Never learn)
Because your silence cuts like broken glass
And I'm still beggin' in the aftermath
You paint the truth, but it fades away (Fades away, fades away)
Then disappear and you call it fate (Call it fate, call it fate)
You change the rules with every breath
Turn love to war, then second guess

I'm not your answer, just a twisted prayer
You show up like you gotta cross the bear
I guess that Heaven's not too far from here
So I'm stayin', I'm stayin'

Your velvet chains, they hold me tight
In your poison touch, I come alive
I'm a prisoner screamin' out your name
But I know that you won't play it safe
Your velvet chains, they give me life
I'm not leavin' 'til I'm satisfied
I know that life won't ever be the same after you
You and your velvet chains

You and your velvet chains, baby (Yeah)
You and your velvet chains, baby (Baby)
You and your velvet chains, baby (Ha)
Your velvet chains
You and your velvet chains, baby (Oh, yeah)
You and your velvet chains, baby (Oh, yeah)
You and your velvet chains, baby (Hold me)

Your velvet chains
Ooh, ooh, ooh
