Houdini

Chains are not what you expect them to be.
 I looked for the truth to set me free.
 Chains are not what you expect them to be.
 I looked for the truth to set you free, my love.
 Years go by like a prophet in songs,
 They shake your hand and say "don't let us go".
 My body, my mind they can play tricks sometimes
 But I'm a free man, in a world of disguise.
 Take my word and believe what you see.
 I am no pretender and I never surrender.
 Take my word and believe what you feel.
 I am no pretender, I am no pretender.
 Some people are born with a thorn in their side.
 They shake their heads and say: "You won't stay alive".
 Some people are born with a hole in their soul.
 They look at you and you let it go.
 Love's a cure, more often a pain,
 But I can't get enough of this summer rain.
 These chains are breaking but this heart's made of ice
 And I cannot look into your eyes.
 Take my word and believe what you see.
 I am no pretender and I never surrender.
 Take my word and believe what you feel.
 I am no pretender, I am no pretender.
