Sheepskin

You know it’s not easy to get you
Sometimes you make me feel so weak
And just when your touch seems so soft
Your claws dig right into me

Sometimes you’re talking like you know me
Better than I even know myself
You rip and pull and tear me
Leaving nothing but faults and inadequacy
And then you smile so smugly
And I hate everything about it

Don’t you come closer
I can see the wolf inside your skin
You are pushing me under
And then wonder why I’m not breathing
Why I’m not breathing

Sometimes you’re asking if I feel the same pull
That we are meant to be
And just when your eyes open up to me
I see the predator underneath
And then you snarl so savagely
And I hate everything about it

Don’t you come closer
I can see the wolf inside your skin
You are pushing me under
And then wonder why I’m not breathing
Why I’m not breathing
I’m not breathing
I’m not breathing

Leave me alone don’t talk to me
Why don’t you get that you were hurting me
Is this a game for you
Do you even care

Leave me alone don’t talk to me
I’m not a part of your pack so you better leave
Is this a game for you
Then watch me play

Don’t you come closer
I can see the wolf inside your skin
You are pushing me under
And then wonder why I’m not breathing
Why I’m not breathing

Your howls are hollow when the moon is full
I’ve got you by the ears
I can’t hold on, with no safe escape
But you’ll whimper so weakly
And never bite me again
Bit me again

Don’t you come over (but you had to come closer)
I saw the wolf inside your skin
You were pushing me under
But now look who’s bleeding
I’m not done breathing

I dare you come over
I saw the wolf inside your skin
You were pushing me under
But now look who’s bleeding
I’m not done breathing
I’m not done breathing
