Thirst

When I think of fates worse than death

All I can think of is something you said

You said we were golden, bright like the sun

And now I am stranded knowing I'm not the one

An ocean of anger, flowing through me

Bloodstained and broken from what I failed to see

And just like a snake charmer you led me astray

Living in distress hoping help was on the way

In the midst of the storm searching for shelter

I came upon one single feather

A half-hearted wish for something better

Gracefully cursed, I thirst

Attached to the soil, I'm dyed in the wool

There's iron in my blood, yet so vulnerable

But after I'm gone, once I finally leave

You will be left alone to the wolves and the thieves

In the midst of the storm searching for shelter

I came upon one single feather

A half-hearted wish for something better

Gracefully cursed, I thirst

Gracefully cursed, I thirst

Gracefully cursed, I thirst

I thirst
