Smiling Shackles

[Instrumental]

Verse 1 I’m falling into a digital dream, Lost in the lights, nothing’s what it seems. You pull me in, but I’m running away, Caught in your web, but I’ll break free someday. Pre-Chorus You play your games, I’m losing control, Caught between the highs and the holes. I’m burning out, but I keep coming back, I’m a wreck, but I don’t look back. Chorus Set me on fire, watch me burn, I’m everything you don’t deserve. Shattered pieces of who I was, But I’ll rise again, just because. Verse 2 I’m screaming out, but you can’t hear, Your love’s a trap, pulling me near. I’m breaking apart, but I won’t stay down, I’m rising above, can’t keep me on the ground. Bridge You tried to hold me, but I slipped away, I’m done with all the games you play. I’m not your toy, I’m not your fight, I’m done pretending that I’m alright. Outro Set me on fire, watch me burn, (Watch me burn) I’ll be the spark, I’ll make you learn, (You’ll learn) I’m breaking free, I’ll find my way, You won’t control me, not today.

Met her at the neon moon, Friday night at half-past nine, She had a smile that could light up the darkest dive. We talked 'bout dreams and hometown tales, Two lost souls on different trails. Whiskey kisses under moonlit skies, Two hearts tangled, no alibis. Dancing shadows to a country tune, Falling in love way too soon. Summer nights turned into days, We got lost in love's sweet maze. From backroad drives to river bends, Wishing these moments would never end. Whiskey kisses under moonlit skies, Two hearts tangled, no alibis. Dancing shadows to a country tune, Falling in love way too soon. But seasons change, and so did we, Promises fade like autumn leaves. Now I sit here with this glass, Chasing memories of the past. Whiskey kisses under moonlit skies, Two hearts tangled, no goodbyes. Dancing shadows to a country tune, Fell in love, then lost too soon. Now every time I taste that rye, I remember those whiskey kisses and sigh.

Verse 1 Sunrise paints my prison gold, Chains so soft, they feel like home. Every step's a measured dance, A marionette of circumstance. Chorus Oh, smiling shackles, glitter bright, Hold me tight in borrowed light. I wear the grin, I play the part, A prisoner of my polished heart. Verse 2 The second bite, a ghost I chase, Freedom whispers, leaves no trace. The mirror’s stare, a silent guide, Where shadows of my chaos hide. Chorus Oh, smiling shackles, glitter bright, Hold me tight in borrowed light. I wear the grin, I play the part, A prisoner of my polished heart. Bridge I dream of storms that break the chain, But fear the flood of unbound rain. A perfect script, a flawless scene, While wildness lingers in between. Outro So here I stand, my tethered soul, A brittle flame, a steady glow. Smiling shackles, hold me near, Your heavy weight, my greatest fear.

"Back to Palestine" (Verse 1) I’m going back to Palestine, Where the sun shines all the time, Where the hills are soft and green, And the rivers flow so clean. (Chorus) I’ll see the mountains, I’ll see the sea, Palestine is home to me. With my family, hand in hand, Back to my beloved land. (Verse 2) I’ll hear the songs of long ago, In the breeze that gently blows, The olive trees will welcome me, With their roots in history. (Chorus) I’ll see the mountains, I’ll see the sea, Palestine is home to me. With my family, hand in hand, Back to my beloved land. (Bridge) In Palestine, I’ll find my way, In the sunshine, every day. With love and joy, I’ll stand so tall, Back to the place I love most of all. (Chorus) I’ll see the mountains, I’ll see the sea, Palestine is home to me. With my family, hand in hand, Back to my beloved land. (Outro) Palestine, you’re in my heart, No matter where I am, we’ll never be apart.

[Verse] Noite escurece até o fim dos dias O céu ruge com fúria e melancolia Montanha brada sem permissão Krakatoa em plena explosão [Verse 2] A água ferve uma prisão de vapor O inferno sobe pelo trono do terror Céu e mar em pura colisão O apocalipse feito de combustão [Chorus] Do fogo ao pó tudo virou A vida apagada o mundo chorou Mil vozes ecoam na escuridão Krakatoa deixou sua devastação [Bridge] Cinzas tomaram conta do azul No horizonte um sol reluz História escrita em lava e dor As ruínas contam o seu terror [Verse 3] A noite vira dia em socorro Na pista do fim o caos montou coro Natureza grita em sua canção A fúria do mundo em erupção [Chorus] Do fogo ao pó tudo virou A vida apagada o mundo chorou Mil vozes ecoam na escuridão Krakatoa deixou sua devastação

I'm so tired of being here Suppressed by all my childish fears And if you have to leave I wish that you would just leave 'Cause your presence still lingers here And it won't leave me alone These wounds won't seem to heal, this pain is just too real There's just too much that time cannot erase When you cried, I'd wipe away all of your tears When you'd scream, I'd fight away all of your fears And I held your hand through all of these years But you still have all of me You used to captivate me by your resonating light Now, I'm bound by the life you left behind Your face it haunts my once pleasant dreams Your voice it chased away all the sanity in me These wounds won't seem to heal, this pain is just too real There's just too much that time cannot erase When you cried, I'd wipe away all of your tears When you'd scream, I'd fight away all of your fears And I held your hand through all of these years And you still have all of me I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone But though you're still with me, I've been alone all along When you cried, I'd wipe away all of your tears When you'd scream, I'd fight away all of your fears I held your hand through all of these years You still have all of me ah, me ah, me ah

Empty streets no one around Shadows creeping without a sound Windows broken doors left wide Silent stories nowhere to hide Dusty relics cold memories Echoes of laughter in the breeze Cobwebbed dreams hung on old walls Ghost towns whisper their silent calls Lost in shadows standing naked all alone
