Everybody tried to warn me,
You're a poison from the start
We had a love just like the movies,
Put a spell right on my heart
I guess that I was too blind,
I was too dumb to see it
I didn't wanna be right,
Guess I didn't wanna believe it
I was going too slow,
Watching life just pass me by
Hey, now I'm going nowhere,
You're the reason why
You're something like an anchor that won't let go of me
You're something like an anchor, now I can barely breathe
I don't wanna go down, if I know I'm gonna drown
You're something like an anchor, I can't I can't…
Now we're sitting at this table
With nothing left to say
Say you wanna stay together
But I think it's just too late, oh
'Cause I just wanna be free,
I cannot do this forever
No, no this is not me,
I deserve something better
I was going too slow,
Watching life just pass me by
Hey, now I'm going nowhere,
You're the reason why
You're something like an anchor that won't let go of me
You're something like an anchor, now I can barely breathe
I don't wanna go down, if I know I'm gonna drown
You're something like an anchor, I can't I can't breathe
Take these chains off me (I don't wanna go under)
Take these chains off me (I don't wanna go under)
Take these chains off me (I don't wanna go under)
Take these chains off me, no no no no no
You're something like an anchor, that won't let go of me
You're something like an anchor, now I can barely breathe
I don't wanna go down, if I know I'm gonna drown
You're something like an anchor, I can't I can't breathe
