Nick told E! News: ‘I found my way to connect to the song. I found it was really true and real. For me, it embodies that feeling of being trapped in a love that is kind of doomed. It can be tough to sing about difficult relationships.Part of my process of writing & making music is that it helps me not feel that way anymore. You get it out of your system. Some people write in journals, some people talk to somebody. For me it’s making music. I think it’s a helpful way to process things.’
“Everyone has their own chains, in life and in love, that bind them and this song embodies that feeling,” he said in an email. “I’m excited to be back to share this song with the world.”

中英文歌詞
[Verse 1]
With her wine-stained lips, yeah she's nothing but trouble
那微啟的朱唇令人神往 固知禍水紅顏所以難免彷徨
Cold to the touch but she's warm as a devil
表面如冰雪女皇般冷若冰霜 內心卻如地獄的岩漿滾燙
I gave all my heart but she won't heal my soul
我一片真情奉上 只換來她令我心傷
She tasted a break and I can't get more
她以逸待勞布下情網 我身墮其中再難辨方向
[Chorus]
You got me in chains, you got me in chains for your love
你給的愛 那是我欲罷不能的枷鎖
But, I wouldn't change, no I wouldn't change this love
我緊緊抓住這份愛 猶如救命稻草 使我有勇氣存活
You got me chains, you got me in chains for your love
你給的愛 那是我欲罷不能的枷鎖
But, I wouldn't change, no I wouldn't change this love
我緊抓這份愛 猶如救命稻草使我有勇氣存活
[Bridge]
Tryna break the chains but the chains only break me
(Hey-ey-ey-ey, hey-ey-ey-ey, hey-ey-ey-ey, hey-ey-ey-ey)
Tryna break the chains but the chains only break me
{Verse 2]
Alone in the night 'til she knocks on my door
Oh no, wasted again but I can't say no (no)
Baby tell me why, why you do, do me wrong
Baby tell me why, why you do, do me wrong
Gave you my heart but you took my soul
[Chorus] + [Bridge]
[Refrain]
Baby tell me why, why you do, do me wrong
Baby tell me why, why you do, do me wrong
Gave you my heart but you took my soul
[Chorus]
[Outro]
Tryna break the chains but the chains only break me
