Getting the Best of Me/ "No More Chains"

"How did I get locked up inside?
What's this that renders me paralyzed?
I lost myself in small pieces
It happened over time

I traded love for a heavy chain
Another link every other day
I pulled it up and down a mountain
It made me want to say?

No more chains
No more chains
Big and small, watch them fall away
No more chains
Big and small, watch them fall away

I wonder now if the choice was mine
The door was open, I walked inside
Nobody had my arm twisted
Nobody made me stay

The face of freedom can show up small
A tiny crack in a prison wall
A song that rises up in silence
A voice that wants to say?

I should let you give me wings
I should let you set me free

No more chains
No more chains
Big and small, watch them fall away"

~ Nichole Nordeman

She sings exactly what I feel and what my heart is trying to say. I am ready to have these chains fall away.
