Eldritch Lyrics

find out things that always make you sick
screaming out frustations kept inside
... do it now! Do it now! Do it now!
Jails, clouding keen minds
instincts restrained by invisible...
CHORUS
Chains: express your own personality!
Make it out, did you decide your destiny?
pointing out mistakes you made on your way
bringing out the best you got inside yourself
...do it now! Do it now! Do it now!
breaking out of opprensive...
Jails, blinding hungry eyes
instincts restrained by invisible...
