these prison walls keep closing in

this chain grows longer as I continue in sin

link by link yard by yard can't ya see the scars?

tonight i'll change oh please believe

the ball and chain oh yeah!

This ball and chain

this blind rage comes from inside

my heart grows harder as i keep drowning in pride

time will tell my true fate pray it's not too late

tonight i'll change oh please believe

the ball and chain oh yeah!

This ball and chain (2x)

a darkened room a wooden chair

my fear grows stronger god this just doesn't seem fair

i was caught trapped in sin can this be the end?

tonight i'll change oh please believe
