Bury it low
I won't need it anymore
Find me the sun
Give me it whole
Melt all the chains in my soul"

Melt all the chains in my soul"

You can live again
What was pain now's gained
A new path gets laid"

Something too big to be seen was passing over and over me"

But if I smell like smoke, it's only 'cause I've been through hell"

And everything I do reminds me of you"
