Jes Perry: Music

• MP3 play whole song, hi-fi (broadband)
• MP3 download whole song, hi-fi

Verse 1

Shouldn't look at you like a fence I can't climb over. Shouldn't think of you as a rule I can't break. Shouldn't love you as just a consequence of circumstance.

Chorus

But you're the chains that hold me bound. You're the prison guard that pushes me down. You're the safety net that stops my freedom flight, and keeps me safe on the ground; but I feel like I'm losing my mind.

Verse 2

Shouldn't look at you like a stranger 'cross the street. Shouldn't think of you as an obstacle to overcome. Shouldn't love you just because it's what's expected.

Chorus

When you're the chains that hold me bound. You're the prison guard that pushes me down. You're the safety net that stops my freedom flight, and keeps me safe on the ground. But I feel like I'm losing my mind.

Bridge

After so many years I'm starting to divide things into his and hers. After all this time I'm labeling things that read mine and yours. And I can't put it down to an argument or cause. Maybe I'm just the selfish person you always said I was, you tell me I’m selfish, I’m just not in love…

Verse 3

Shouldn't hide my feelings and challenge you to read my mind. Shouldn't wish you'd change and tell myself you'll come around in time. Shouldn't bare my soul to strangers in a song.

Chorus

When you're the chains that hold me bound. You're the prison guard that pushes me down. You're the safety net that stops my freedom flight, and keeps me safe on the ground. But I feel like I'm losing my mind. I'm losing my mind Over you
