DOG

I'm just my dog
And I circle around
For a place that feels better
Than the one I'm in now
And no I'm not scared
Of the man at the door
I just thought I would warn you
What you yell at me for?

And we soften the blows
But it cheapens the truth
Watch my words shed their meaning
As they're dancing to you
We're not changing it up
We're just changing around
And if it's not forever
At least it's for now

I can believe like a bird in a storm
In a love that goes nowhere
Like a body goes warm
But I can't forgive
The part of me that knew
You don't want me to do it
You want me to want to

And you're clicking your shoes
There's a ghost on the news
All these bodies are moving
That I thought were statues
And there's life in your face
It's in all of theirs too
And it's more than just me now
I don't know what to do
I don't know what to do
