There's a madman in the corner of your eye
He likes to pry into your sunlight
He wants to burst into the street with you and I
A world of shadows and of rain
He's seen what love is
He wants to pay you back with guilt
He lies to you, he won't let you be
He's got your chains of misery
He won't be still till he's turned your key
He holds your chains of misery, yeah
He's got your chains of misery
There's a prophet in the gutter in the street
He says you're damned and you believe him
He's got a vision but it shines out through your eyes
A world of hatred and fear
He's felt what love means
He wants to pay you back with pain
He lies to you, he won't let you be
He's got your chains of misery
He won't be still till he's turned your key
He holds your chains of misery
He lies to you, he won't let you be
He's got your chains of misery
He won't be still till he's turned your key
He holds your chains of misery
It's only love that holds the key
To your heart
It's only love
He lies to you, he won't let you be
He's got your chains of misery
He won't be still till he's turned your key
He holds your chains of misery
He lies to you, he won't let you be
He's got your chains of misery
He won't be still till he's turned your key
He holds your chains of misery
