Crayon

C'mon deary.
I'll paint the town red with your face.
like a toddler scribbles outside the lines
and we'll have a ball.

no no, don't get it twisted
i just want some satisfaction
because i can't get none.

So take my hand and close your eyes
because whats coming up
you'll never expect

If you listen closely
you can almost hear
the terror in my voice.

Because i'm the king of the castle
and you're the dirty rascal
and this game of hide and seek
is turning for the worst.

No no, don't get it twisted
you just missed it
when i said that this would end
in flames.

and now my stomach is growling
because i'm tired of dreaming
tired of the abstract and "what ifs"

this kingdom is falling
and my ticker can't handle much more.

i'll smile as this all falls away
because it was fun while it lasted.
