Shackles closed tightly leave a scar around the wrist
A faint indentation
When you've been released they'll tell you you are free
You're human again

They hand you your belongings and send you away
Feeling triumphant
You welcome what you see as a second chance
Start your life over

Finally you've escaped the labyrinth
Everyone notices the scars
Shackles closed tightly leave a scar around the wrist
A faint indentation
