Wildlife

Night is lonesome with company
And there's a whirlwind kicking around coming after me
Did I become this way slowly row by row
Or was I always this way but didn't know

My upper canines grew like this one week
Wild hair grew thicker on my brow and on my cheek
I've got special needs not filled by day
I'm scaring all the wildlife away

I am not here at the bar
Because I want to be
I sweep up the mess and lock up the door
Of these memories

Lately I've not been myself
I could go out and seek help
It'd just do more harm than good that way
I'm scaring all the wildlife away

Mine's an adventure just like a child's
Rode out the wind til Martini Henry drove me wild
The stars stared back at me again today
I'm scaring all the wildlife away

I did not force my way
Into this unlocked car
Wholeheartedly

If it was my own I'd take you out
To look at the stars
If they weren't after me

Heaven be silent
Heaven it takes too long to get back
And I know that I'd miss my ride
