I’m foaming at the mouth
I am half the dog you wanted
The other half you’re forced to keep around
I’m calling but you just hear it as a sound
I’m talking but it just comes out as a howl
You’re close but afraid you’re textured like a cloud
I’m pulling a rope that’s tethered underground
I try to love but get caught up in empathy
Can’t digest your needs, my stomachs always empty
I live in a new thought, it breaks, I see in front of me
A bright scary world so I react incredulously
Hide out under the couch
Things you lost forgot by now
Picture the family name
Do I make it in the frame?
When you’re new then everybody wants you
You’re worn out? well hey, man I get tired too
Long days spent shuttered inside the house
Which one of us is more ashamed to be seen out?
I’m not a lot but more than what’s inside of me
I’d run on our walks if I’d escape the pity on me
All that I fear, we stay cause we can’t disappear
In different directions, neither one of us is really here
I can’t lay down feels like there’s just no room for me
Encounters I’ve had corrupted all my memories
I smile, I laugh, habits are all I have
Lick the bowl till it’s clean too full to look for any relief
Eyes going dark and I’ve lost the world’s scent
Knew that I aged faster, it’s wisdom I missed
Consigned to your place
I thought I’d come and sweep you off of your feet
We’d love each other unconditionally
I succumbed to all the flaws in my breed
Now you find that you keep tripping all over me
Always there but never quite as much as you need
I try to love but get caught up in empathy
Can’t digest your needs, my stomachs always empty
I live in a new thought, it breaks, I see in front of me
A bright scary world so I react incredulously
I can’t lay down feels like there’s just no room for me
Encounters I’ve had corrupted all my memories
I smile, I laugh, habits are all I have
Lick the bowl till it’s clean too full to look for any relief
