Crocodile Smiles

Luring me in with your Crocodile smile,
My heart skips a beat, I’m in total denial.
This time will be different, these feelings are real,
Old scars and old sorrows, I force behind steel.

I give you my soul, a defenseless Nile plover,
How deeply I trust you, you call me your lover.
Two tangled up timelines, to last through the ages,
A saccharine love story foretold by the sages.

From good friends to soul mates, we quickly transcend,
You say that you’ll love me until this world ends.
In a cheerful embrace, we’ll forever remain,
Through laughter and sorrow, through sunshine and rain.

Luring me in with your Crocodile smile,
My heart skips a beat, I’m in total denial.
This time will be different, these feelings are real,
Old scars and old sorrows, I force behind steel.

Then snap! It all shatters, with a bite from your jaws,
As I’m chewed to the core, by your powerful maw.
These feelings we shared were a cruel, heartless ruse,
Now you leave with naught but an empty excuse.

Defeated and listless, I’ll wander this earth,
‘Til new crocodile smiles lure me in with false mirth.
Oh the grand game of love, I just can’t seem to win,
Is the fleeting amour worth the endless chagrin?

Luring me in with your Crocodile smile,
My heart skips a beat, I’m in total denial.
This time will be different, these feelings are real,
Old scars and old sorrows, I force behind steel.
