Break in the Chain

There's been a break in the chain
 A sudden break in the motion
 This gambler's played for no gain
 And drops down into the ocean
 Stunned by the loss
 And weighing the cost
 Baby's taken the train
 Watched the leaves as they scattered
 Left with only a pain
 In place of what mattered
 All I could not decide
 Has been simplified
 If you want me to stay, I will
 Tell me stay away, I will
 But debts I'll repay
 And knots I've tied undo
 Walk the tracks of my tears
 One line after the other
 Crossing lonely frontiers
 An arrow through thunder
 I will survive my trial
 Maybe in a while
 You'll ask me to stay, and I will
 Tell me to stay away, I will
 But debts I'll repay
 And knots I've tied undo
 There's been a break in the chain
 A sudden break in the motion
 This gambler's played to no gain
 And drops down into the ocean
 Stunned by the loss
 And weighing the cost
