Hunt
What I feel for you
is a tangled web
built from everything
that you've said
every time
you tell me we're friends
& all I want is
to hear you say you love me again
& I love you better
but you loved her first
you choose the old scars
to stay in an old war
you want me here
you say as much
you say whatever you want
because this is your house
& this is your hunt.
Don't worry
this will only hurt like hell
I'm no stranger to it
I know the feeling well
if I were smarter
I probably wouldn't go back
but I need you
even if I don't know what to make of that
& I love you better
but you loved her first
you choose the old scars
to stay in an old war
you want me here
you say as much
you say whatever you want
because this is your house
& this is your hunt.
You want me
but do you want me enough?
You need me
but do you need me enough?
You say you love me
but words are not enough
& I love you better
but you loved her first
you choose the old scars
to stay in an old war
you want me here
you say as much
you say whatever you want
because this is your house
& this is your hunt.
