Fox On A Chain [Barbershop Blues]

see you—then you disappear Each day flips like pages unclear A trick of the eye, a blink and you’re gone Why is it me who sees what's wrong? No one else feels what I’ve seen Your world lives somewhere in between [Chorus] You're a fox on a chain, pulling to break Trapped in a game that someone else made Flicker and vanish, then reappear Don’t even know why you’re here Who holds your leash? Who pulls tight? Curiosity’s keeping me up at night [Verse 2] Chains on your ankles, nowhere to run You’re sprinting through shadows, chasing the sun Directionless, but still alive Carrying pain that you hide behind I see the cracks in your disguise The hunted look behind your eyes [Chorus] You're a fox on a chain, pulling to break Trapped in a game that someone else made Flicker and vanish, then reappear Don’t even know why you’re here Who holds your leash? Who pulls tight? Curiosity’s keeping me up at night [Bridge] Stand your ground, let the wild in You’ve got fire burning under skin Full of mystery, full of fight Run ‘til you're gone, chase the light [Final Chorus / Outro] You’ve been played, caught in their game Still breaking free, link by chain Why’d they let go if they held you so tight? It’s another trick—don’t lose sight I’ll help you run, I’ll help you hide So you can be you on your own time
