When we were made
It was no accident
We were tangled up like branches in a flood
I come as a blade
A sacred guardian
So you keep me sharp and test my worth in blood

You've got me in a chokehold
You've got me in a chokehold
You've got me in a

Beneath the stormy seas
Above the mountain peaks
It's all the same to me
It makes no difference
I've seen my days unfold, done the impossible
I'll turn my walls to gold
To bring you home again

So show me that which I cannot see
Even if it hurts me, even if I can't sleep
Oh, and though we act out of our
Holy duty to be constantly awake

You've got me in a chokehold
You've got me in a chokehold
You've got me in a chokehold
You've got me in a chokehold

Even if it hurts me, even if I can't sleep
Show me the way

    My Interpretation

    Based on the representative figure in the song's video, 'Chokehold' because it's like an executioner judging by the axe and skulls on its back. So whatever chokehold he's being held in ends in a metaphorical beheading? That's my best assessment.
