"Hello, boys." - Crowley, Supernatural


Sometimes I sink into despair

I think everybody's been there

Sometimes, sometimes, I find myself thinking

Sometimes, sometimes, I find myself dreaming

When I wake up to my surprise

Jump out of bed, open my eyes

 

My chains they've always been here

Sometimes I wish they'd disappear

I dream that every nation

Won't be no discrimination

Sometimes, sometimes, I find myself thinking

Sometimes, sometimes I find myself dreaming

 

Last night I was in a perfect house

Last night I was with my dream spouse

Last night, last night,  my arms were bare

Last night, last night, no chains were there

Then I wake up, I find no one around

I'm in my bed, so safe and sound

 

Sometimes, sometimes, I find myself thinking

Sometimes, sometimes, I find myself dreaming

What if one day, I changed my mind

But still there would be chains to find

This song is about the opinions and stereotypes of others forced on us becuase of who we are and how we escape them in our dreams.
