Prizefighter

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Oh, I am not yours, bleeding on your dancefloors Gather around the spectacle hanging from a string And are you so tired as you tremble on the high wire? Ready now to come down, but no one's listening [Pre-Chorus] I'm drowning in your waves [Chorus] 'Cause I am not a prize that you compete for Or a horse that you can break Oh, I am not something to be fenced in In case I run away I am not a sideshow in your circus Or a trophy on your shelf 'Cause I don't belong to you Oh no, I don't belong to you Or anyone else [Verse 2] Is this a hell of my own making or a castle in the sky? Is this fruit here for the taking or forbidden? Tell me why To these shadows I might break down, to the walls I will confide Will you watch this building burn, or will you run into the fire? [Pre-Chorus] I'm drowning in your waves [Chorus] 'Cause I am not a prize that you compete for Or a horse that you can break Oh, I am not something to be fenced in In case I run away I am not a sideshow in your circus Or a trophy on your shelf 'Cause I don't belong to you A-no, I don't belong to you Or anyone else [Post-Chorus] Oh-oh, oh-oh, or anyone else Oh-oh, oh-oh [Bridge] Bathed in light, we come alive Slow motion coming back around Like oceans, breaking down, hey! [Chorus] And I am not a prize that you compete for Or a horse that you can break And I am not something to be fenced in In case l run away I am not a sideshow in your circus Or a trophy on your shelf 'Cause I don't belong to you No, I don't belong to you Or anyone else Or anyone else
