Misery Chain - Chris Cornell, Joy Williams

Won’t you take one link from this misery chain?

Keep it to remind you, of a long forgotten time or a place

So that you recognize its shape, when it’s near

Any time or place this misery chain should appear

Take the locks and shackles, and melt all of it down

Shine a light upon, every shadow, every acre of ground

The hidden corners on in all around

Anywhere you feel this misery chain should be found

When we’re gone, and it’s all said and done

What will we leave

Stories told, will thy speak of us when God only knows

What those words will b

And if I should fall from the top of the world

To the depths below, so far below where our belief could exist

Down further still will be, the one who hides the key

And there’s to try to put these misery chains on me

When we’re gone, and it’s all said and done

What will we leave

Stories told, will they speak of us when God only knows

What those words will be

Won’t you take one link, from this misery chain?

Keep it to remind you, of a long forgotten time or a place

So that you recognize it, 'till it’s understood

And that every trace of this misery chain is gone for good

'Til every trace of this misery chain is gone for good
