It's a shame you're not here

On the cross, in my ear

Hearing things loud and clear

Come outside have no fear And clear the smoke, get some fresh air

Someone waits, someone cares

In the broad light of day

Trouble seems so far away And at the top of the day

When the reign sways Lose the cradle chain

Give it up, give it a name

The child that remains

Nothing's lost, take these chains

Take them away Please don't ask me how I am

A little tired, little scared

I'm not amused, not upset

Don't need a leash, I'm not your pet So loosen up, feel the breeze

Let me hear, hear you breathe

It's better than, bitter now

When you breathe I love that sound But you know I'll look after

You like no one Lose the cradle chain

Give it up, give it a name

The child that remains

Nothing's lost, take these chains

Take them away If I die before I wake

Light a fuse, bake a cake

I don't mind if I go

Make it quick, don't be slow But you know I'll remember

You like no one Lose the cradle chain

Give it up, give it a name

The smile that remains

Will take these chains away
