Analysis of Break the chains.

A J C 1958 (Swansea, MA)



Break the chains.

I can see visions in your eyes of chains and pains; you have no more pride. Just like me, sometimes I don't think I'm alive. We have to break the chains and heal the pain, then we'll go out into the rain and wash them all away. Then, at the end of the day, it will be me, you will see. I will set you free, and I don't ask for a fee; it's always free. Now, when you look, you see the birds singing in the trees. Chains are made to be broken now that I have spoken.
