Raccoon

from Whisker Kiss by Whisker Kiss

lyrics

Peaking out through the wood-framed glass, the metal shine within the grass
Baited and set I dream of when, in the palm of my hand, my finch my friend

This is my only time I live here,
I'm gonna catch my only friend!

I'm gonna catch!

Killing off days with work and rent
Move to the woods and take tasks less

Am I just clumsy and foreboding?
So much that outside cowers in?

Please don't cower!

Put all of your prayers inside the hollow tree
And wait, and wait, and wait, and wait, and wait
It worked for me.
Solid strength can't beat what you want with all the heat
Inside your chest, your chest, your chest!
Don't you believe?

'Til on my way home I see a raccoon!
It runs, it's not mine.

Running through the woods, in hot pursuit of what I thought I wanted
Don't you believe?
Solid sticks on tress, a strong defense against me
Oh my face, my face, my face
Begins to bleed.

Until three days the trail has worn thin
My head's will faces racoons aren't so nice

Cold and frozen with no home!
All my memories are controlled
By emotions
Where'd I run from?
Where'd I run from?
History changes with my mood.
