I held on to the hurt, wrestled it to the ground   Fought it like Heaven and Hell and I lost every round   There wasn't anybody I would trust   So long since I felt love, I'd forgotten what it was      Baby 'til you got a hold of my angry heart   I saw the truth when you led my way out of the dark   I was draggin' round these chains like some ghost in the hall   Swearing at the pain and empty from it all   Until you got a hold of my angry heart      Living in the past, locked up with my rage   I built that prison myself, it's such a lonely cage   I started believing I would never heal   Your love changed my life when I thought my fate was sealed      Baby, 'til you got a hold of my angry heart   I saw the truth when you led my way out of the dark   I was draggin' round these chains like some ghost in the hall   Swearing at the pain and empty from it all   Until you got a hold of my angry heart      I thought, I would disappear without a trace   Until your love washed each teardrop from my face      Baby, you got a hold of my angry heart   I saw the truth, you led my way out of the dark   I was draggin' round these chains like some ghost in the hall   Swearing at the pain and empty from it all   Until you got a hold of my angry heart      Baby, you got a hold of my angry heart
