Ball and Chain

[Verse 1]
Flirting with suspicion
Staring through the glass
Another false transaction
A production of the past
I was lost in fabrication
The finish line was fixed
The code was falling fast
And it was stacking up like bricks

[Pre-Chorus]
(Doot-doot-doot-doot, do-do)
(Doot-doot-doot-doot, do-do)

[Chorus]
I may never see you again
It's a ball and chain
With the golden handcuffs
You can carry me away
If I say my bad, you can trust in that
Only one holds the keys
To the ball and chain

[Post-Chorus]
Cut that ball and chain
Cut that ball and chain
Cut that ball and chain

[Verse 2]
Lost sense of direction
Just a shadow in the haze
My parasitic past life
Halfway in a daze
I saw that in a distance
That portrait of the past
Etched within an echo
The first will be the last

[Pre-Chorus]
(Doot-doot-doot-doot, do-do)
(Doot-doot-doot-doot, do-do)

[Chorus]
I may never see you again
It's a ball and chain
With the golden handcuffs
You can carry me away
If I say my bad, you can trust in that
Only one holds the keys
To the ball and chain

[Post-Chorus]
Cut that ball and chain
Cut that ball and chain
Cut that ball and chain

[Chorus]
I may never see you again
It's a ball and chain
With the golden handcuffs
You can carry me away
If I say my bad, you can trust in that
Only one holds the keys
To the ball and chain
