lyrics

I'm trapped in a place I don't belong
Smiling as I go along
I've strapped these weights to my feet
Happy that I've got somewhere to be

I've used up all my energy
I've used up all my energy
I've used up all my energy
I've got to let it atrophy
It's just another tragedy

You can find me giving myself away
So I can finally make my little promised land

Got nothing to keep us sane
We all learn to love our chains
When we've seen that smiling is just a lie
We all learn to bury it deep inside

I've used up all my energy
I've got to let atrophy
It's just another tragedy

You can find me giving myself away
So I can finally make my little promised land

You can find me giving myself away, let the music play
So I can finally make my little promised land, with my broken hands
