I try to put you in a picture,
try to put you in a box and keep you over there
You rage like a monster,
rattling your cage, but I just can’t stay clear
You strike with claws, sharp and bright,
exposing my insides
You see the cuts, you see the blood,
it really makes you smile
it really makes you smile
it really makes you smile
You only pull your punches,
After you’ve emptied all your guns,
Peering into my wounds
To find where my emptiness comes from
You strike with claws, sharp and bright,
exposing my insides
You see the cuts, you see the blood,
it really makes you smile
it really makes you smile
it really makes you smile
You tell me to come by,
You want to talk it over and look into my eyes
I promise I will be good, I’ll keep you at a distance, I won’t even try
I am starving like an animal, trying to deny
the rumbling deep inside and the wings that make me fly
across the room, chasing after you
We end up on the floor, always wanting more
make myself a liar, whether spark or fire
