Riff: The xx – “Chained”

Aug 7, 2012

It’s not a secret you should keep/I won’t let you slip away

He wonders, perplexed, while she stubbornly refuses to set the record straight. The frustration is audible and so is the distance between players in the game of love. The truth is never told but it seems someone has the answer and is simply keeping mum.
