lyrics

How many foxes trotted along the pasture to eat the sheep as you deeply sleep upon the captor? The fences they jump just isn’t enough for defenses as they scatter along the grassy knoll until they spot and capture...and attack you in a rapture. And the laughter filled the air as they sit and stare. Catapult your fist and swear to God that it isn’t fair. So sick of missing home that it’s got you sick of prayers. Just when the coast is clear, they blast a pistol. The fox and hound.
They call you a dog, so you bark at them. But you can’t bite the hand that feeds you, so you dart past them. Aiming for your target, but you can’t start to fathom how sharp your teeth really are until you start attacking. And it seems like every day is a goddamn chase. Debris keeps falling in your goddamn face. You need them to give you some goddamn space. It kind of makes you wonder how God can stand this place. The fox and hound.
You can smell the fear so you can tell that hell is near. You’re crawling around like tortoise until the shells appear. Then it’s “Get ‘em boy! Sick ’em boy!” and your master won’t let your pack back until the fucking mission’s void. Then you killed a little boy so they want to put you down. When they know it in their hearts that they’re the reason that you came unwound. “Don’t put me in the pound” says the hound to the fox. The fox smirks like “you ain’t getting off that easy. Back to the blocks.” The fox and hound.
They can’t throw you a bone so you only catch feelings. Until the throne was overthrown, you felt it was appealing. Had you focused in the zone, so consumed with killing. Now you’re calling this place home even though there ain’t no ceiling. Just a dog on his leash. A monster. A beast. You fought for the peace but all you got was a speech. Tuck your tail between your legs and howl the night away. Still repping the flag as the fox lives to kill anotherday. The fox and hound.
