Despicable Animal

[Verse 1]

If I say no to you will I still go to you

Begging a desperate grin

All eyes and mouth

Will I still shut you out

Will I eat all your ashes again

Still in this haste

Wonder what is this taste

You are feeding me gentle and plain

Though I am made for you

I am afraid of you

Violence is part of your name

[Chorus]

Thank god

I'm home

You're finally on to me

My one, my own

Despicable animal

[Verse 2]

I hope we meet

And still you will speak to me

I shift to flee

And render it obsolete

But I won't see the sun for anyone

My blindness is complete

And there is no coin or currency

To equal my belief

If I can bring us to water

Will you promise to drink deep

You are the one who makes me golden

As I shudder in my sleep

You are the one

Is it a flaw that I'm proud of it all

At how little that we truly need

I was in awe, I was never in doubt

Of how terrible hunger can be

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]

I swear I can speak

But my jaw is loosening

I feel the pull

And oh it is frightening

But I won't see the sun for anyone

My blindness is complete

And there is no coin or currency

To equal my belief

If I can bring us to water

Will you promise to drink deep

You are the one who makes me golden

As I mutter in my sleep

You are the one

And I won’t see the sun

For anyone
