Shelter

This silence bothers me, I’m caught in memories
I just want, just want to be free.

You promised to be there, Now I’m lost, you're anywhere
With this ball and chain I cannot get out of here

I took the chances as they came, never worried what would come next
Until that one day it all became too much, I needed a rest
But I became frightend and bewaring of the change
frozen in these tracks

So for how long will I want to know
How silent winter grows
For how long will I be safe
I can see my shelter break

I’m the proudest man around, cause you’ve spotted me in the crowd
It’s the chain that keeps me on the ground

I spit my secrets onto the floor, I bleed, I’m definitely wounded,
public affairs, a case to close I need but do not dare
They gonna bend the bow of hope and proceed until it bursts
And so will I

So for how long will I want to know
How silent winter grows
For how long will I be safe
I can feel my shelter break
