panther from the light, dark
you bit back my pain from the edge of your teeth
strong from my neck
carried me to clean waters
where are you now, love?
i see you but its not the same
cold on my eyes, rolled
i ate you within weeks
the heat rolls off your body
in waves that get me high
get me off, just get away.
cast you far from me
your lips dont seem as strong
with your words tying them down
whats something i could show
that maybe youd believe
i understand, dont mean anything to me
never could be happy with
i cry, lying to myself
my fists have bruised so blue
every flower smells like you
every friday is just hell
i cant call to you anymore
im tired of forgotten
ive never been happy anyways...
