back on the chain gang

i found a picture of you, oh oh oh oh, it hijacked my world at nights, from a place in the past, we've been cast out of, oh oh oh oh, now we're back in the fight, yes we're back on the chain gang, oh back on the chain gang, a circumstance beyond our control, oh oh oh oh, the phone, the tv and the news of the world, got in the house like a pigeon from hell, oh oh oh oh, sand in our eyes, descended like flies, yes we're back on the chain gang, oh back on the chain gang, the powers that be, that force us to live like we do, bring me to my knees, when i see what they've done to you, but i'll die as i stand here today, knowing that deep in my heart, they'll fall to ruin one day, for making us part, i found a picture of you, oh oh oh oh, they were the happiest days of my life, like a break in the battle was your part, oh oh oh oh, lonely heart, lonely hearts, yes we're back on the chain gang, oh back on the chain gang
