Lyrics

We built a fort together You built one around your heart You let me in, in sunny weather locked me out when the rains fell hard I stood out in the storm Cause you had things to do  But I would rather walk alone Than sit around being lonely for you   (Pre-chorus) I'm getting off this carousel I've ridden by your side I will keep myself in tact and you can keep your pride (Chorus) So kiss me for the last time  Don't watch me walk away Cause if I don't do this for me it'll be my dying day I'm handing you the key to those accursed chains  and you'll be walking free But those chains will rust when it rains (Same as verses) No matter how I counted you found a place to hide All my seeking only led me to your shore at low tide So I waded in the water hoping you might throw me a line All I got was soaking wet but I'll dry off in time (Same as pre-chorus) I'm getting off this seesaw we've ridden up and down You can keep your hidden heart and I'll ride on out of town (Same chorus) So kiss me for the last time Don't watch me walk away Cause if I don't do this for me it'll be my dying day I'm handing you the key to those supposed chains  and you'll be walking free   But those chains will rust when it rains                   (Bridge) When the rain comes down and the pressure's high All the dirt gets carried away When the rain don't stop pouring from the sky You'll have to face your judgement day (Repeats with just drums) So kiss me for the last time And watch me walk away I'll take your pain with each step on this, your dying day. I'm handing you the key to those accursed chains  and you'll be walking free almighty  But those chains will rust when it rains Those chains will rust when it rains Those chains will rust when it rains You took a link from an old chain and threw it right in the sea Though you held my hand through that you never had one for me Can you feel the thunder in the ground? Can you taste the coming rain? The next time that it comes around You know I'm getting on that train Can you hear the whistle cry (scream) my pain that nothing can remain? Everything must return to dust and wash away when it rains
