Bloodhound

raise me and feed me
as a dog you lead me

perverting my purpose
leaving me without vision
a long awaited division

leave me with malnutrition
in animalistic disposition
have me beached
and all that I have preached

having never been born
with arms enough
to love and to reach
call me out on my bluff
looking like a kid
looking tough
oh god, forbid

raise me and feed me
as a dog you lead me

love me with lust
don't let my wine dry up
waiting to combust
hand me our wedding cup
all it was, was pretty bleach
I'm so hard to teach

begging for the dregs
on hind legs

warp my speech
make me face the moon, make me bay
call on me like a bloodhound
until I swoon, until I decay
never to be found
on the beach, on the beach
for never did I preach
and never, for me, will you reach

never lost, never found
call on me like regret
I am your pet
always drowned
