Soul Asylum Cradle Chain
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
