lyrics

I read too much, I write too much, I think too much,
When all I’ve ever wanted is to know enough,
To fill me up, to fill me up.

I fear too much, I run too much, away from touch,
When all I’ve ever wanted is to know love,
And fill me up and fill me up.

Oh, chained to me.
I’m chained to me.
I feel the feeling of empty,
I feel the feeling of just me.

I try too much, I cry too much, I’m being crushed,
By all the things I’ve wanted,
The thrill, the rush,
That fill me up, that fill me up.

I fight, I’m slashed, I drive, I’m crashed,
Too fast, too fast, when all I’ve ever wanted
Is to ditch my past, and fill me up, and fill me up.

Oh, chained to me.
I’m chained to me.
I feel the feeling of empty,
I feel the feeling of just me.

This place is void, it’s black no noise,
Not comfortable, nothing like I’m used to,
I don’t belong, it feels wrong, I don’t belong.

Oh, chained to me.
I’m chained to me.
I feel the feeling of empty,
I feel the feeling of just me.

"I'm staggered by how good she is. I can honestly say she's the most exciting thing I've heard in a long time."
– Bernie Taupin, Elton John's cowriter

"I've never seen an unknown performer with more power as when I saw Ariana performing at a music convention – I couldn't stop talking about her. The last performer I felt this way about was Bruce Springsteen"
