1 **** Limit
They say deer only wander a few square miles their entire lives
And I am realizing now we are like that too-
You are like that.
You always said I had the eyes of the doe and maybe that's why you can't bring yourself to look me straight in the face during hunting season
Tell me why we are drunk on the idea that love is a game
To love and be loved
(To **** and be killed)
Every time I see you I must run before the shot is fired or
you will catch me
you will catch me
you will catch me
I'm running faster and faster until I can't tell which way is which
And you are hungry because your last catch just didn't do it for you
Tell me why am I the one
I'm convenient.
And right as you pull the trigger
I escape down the hill
I am gone
I am gone
I am gone
And I bet you didn't see the car coming by in time to block the bullet from ricocheting back into your chest
