I was born in the state where my mother was raised

With the children of soldiers, the children of slaves

And it's too much to take, the mind how it breaks

The lessons the stories the shame and the glories and all

They linger 'round

Foxes and hounds

Our souls are bound

To older ground

Fell in love with a girl who's found love before

In the hands and the hearts of the people she wore

She's all that I see, but there's things in between

The fractures and fissures of all of the pictures we leave

They linger 'round

Foxes and hounds

They're with me now

Can't lay them down

And I feel it all around, I'm surrounded

And I feel it all around, I'm surrounded

And I feel it all around, I'm surrounded by ghosts

So we keep them at home, the secrets and bones

The voices we hear so we're never alone

They tease and they taunt, comfort and haunt

My mother and father and so many I'll never know

They linger 'round

Foxes and hounds

My hands are bound

And I feel it all around, I'm surrounded

And I feel it all around, I'm surrounded

And I feel it all around, I'm surrounded by ghosts
