10. These Chains (4:59)
[Verse 1]
Everybody keeps talkin' about you
I can't lie anymore
Been too long, what went wrong?
It's a mystery
Why you ever walked out that door

[Pre-Chorus]
What direction should I go?
Girl what's next for me?
I don't know

[Chorus]
Is it gonna get easier?
Than tryin' to break these chains around my heart
Oh oh
Does it ever get easier?
Without you I can't pull these chains apart
Oh oh

[Verse 2]
I see your face
When I look in the mirror
I feel your touch but you're not there
Wakin' up -- had enough
Of this dream of mine
Girl this just isn't fair

[Pre-Chorus]
What direction should I go?
Girl what's next for me?
I don't know

[Chorus]
Is it gonna get easier?
Than tryin' to break these chains around my heart
Ohhh ohhh
Does it ever get easier?
Without you I can't pull these chains apart
Oh oh

[Bridge]
Day by day
Until they break
Oh oh

[Chorus]
Is it gonna get easier?
Than tryin' to break these chains around my heart
Oh oh
Does it ever get easier?
Without you I can't pull these chains apart
Oh oh
