lyrics

CHASING RABBITS
When Cleo was a puppy she got sick and nearly died
And the vet suspects it left her with some damage deep inside
She can’t handle freedom in the woods or on the beach
We know that she’ll go running so we keep her on a leash

Deep down I know Cleo is an awful lot like me
We tend to hide our troubles places people never see
She’s a slave to being anxious, I’m a slave to my bad habits
When I should be busy working I’m distracted, chasing rabbits

In my dreams I try to catch them but they wake me up at night
When I think of all the music and the songs I didn’t write
I know I held myself back, no, I can’t blame anyone
Every morning I make Cleo stop and walk instead of run

Since we can’t handle freedom, our family keeps us close
Though we take out our frustrations on the ones that matter most
Then we cover them with kisses, or we hide our love away
When the only thing they want is for us to sit, for us to stay

Deep down I know Cleo is an awful lot like me
We tend to hide our troubles places people never see
And I wish that I could trust her, wish that I could let her go
I would drop her leash and watch her chase the rabbits through the snow
