Familiar Chains Lyrics

The siren calls of the mundane life

Where days repeat and they're filled with strife

It's your old friend, it's routine's curse

You find safety in the same old verse

The city's hum is a lullaby

But it taunts us with a restless lie

Break the chains of the daily grind

Find the world that's waiting, undefined

Under flickering lights in this dim-lit room

Feeling like a ghost in the dawning gloom

The echoes of the past and the shouts of now

Trap us in the present, but we'll make it somehow

In the soft embrace of the familiar place

Where the shadows dance and the dreams are erased

It's a cozy little prison that we settle in

But we're chained to the comfort and the comfort's thin

Ungrateful kids and a nagging wife

I guess this is your little slice-of-life

Just remember it could get much worse

Even though you're going in reverse

Under flickering lights in this dim-lit room

Feeling like a ghost in the dawning gloom

The echoes of the past and the shouts of now

Trap us in the present, but we'll make it somehow

In the soft embrace of the familiar place

Where the shadows dance and the dreams are erased

It's a cozy little prison that we settle in

But we're chained to the comfort and the comfort's thin
