    "The Chain" Lyrics:
    The sky looks pissed.
    The wind talks back.
    The bones are shifting in my skin and you my love are gone.
    My room seems wrong.
    The bed won't fit.
    I can not seem to operate and you my love are gone
    So glide away on soapy heels and promise not to promise anymore
    And if you come around again then I will take,
    Then I will take the chain from off the door
    I'll never say, I'll never love
    But I don't say a lot of things and you my love are gone
    So glide away on soapy heels and promise not to promise anymore
    And if you come around again then I will take,
    Then I will take the chain from off the door
    So glide away on soapy heels and promise not to promise anymore
    And if you come around again then I will take,
    Then I will take the chain from off the door
    So glide away on soapy heels and promise not to promise anymore
    And if you come around again then I will take,
    Then I will take the chain from off the door
    So glide away on soapy heels and promise not to promise anymore
    And if you come around again then I will take,
    Then I will take the chain from off the door
    So glide away on soapy heels and promise not to promise anymore
    And if you come around again then I will take,
    Then I will take the chain from off the door
    So glide away on soapy heels and promise not to promise anymore
    And if you come around again then I will take,
    Then I will take the chain from off the door

    I first heard this song in 2008 or 2009 when Ingrid was the opener for some band (I forgot the name of) at a concert at the University of Rochester (I was a student there). It was after a blizzard and half her band couldn't make it to Rochester so she performed her set with just a ukelele and her drummer. She invited someone from the audience who knew this song to sing with her and it was just a really sweet and chill experience I'll never forget. 😊

      it being the original is irrelevant. some people just prefer the styles of those that did the covers, Its a really crazy thing called an opinion. Personally I like George Blagden's cover of this but I still wanted to see what the original was like because I was curious.

    Listen, Dodie's cover is great and all but the *original* has more depth to it. This song represents the haunting powers of depression and you can definitively feel haunted while listening to her voice, the increasing intensity of the volume and the drums which Dodie doesn't have. This song as recorded by Ingrid is perfect the way it is.

    I used to listen this on my mp3 on repeat. At the end the canon fades from one ear to the other. It was like an EMDR session before I knew what it was.
    P.S. Sorry for the song rights. It would be great to give back by going to one of your concerts if you come to EU soon. ❤️‍🩹
