A Hex, A Vexation

You mangy mutt

Please look at us

We want to see your eyes

I cannot

Contain myself

When I sympathize

 

And all we want

Is just three words

Unsolicited

And all I want

Is just a touch

And blessing on the head

 

What has happened to you

A hex, A Vexation

Please come back

And did you see me walk out

A test, or reality

I’ll come back

 

She looks for

just her share

Of your attention

He waits for

You to help

Build a nation

 

I don’t feel

I’m asking more

That you said you’d give

Not privilege

Or shiny things

Show me how to live

 

What has happened to you

A hex, A Vexation

Please come back

And did you see me walk out

A test, or reality

I’ll come back

 

When we

Burn the Witch

Burn her

Burn her

 

Burn the Witch

Burn her

Burn her

 

Burn the Witch

Burn her

Burn her

 

Burn the Witch

Burn her

Burn her

This is lyrics that are meant to go with music, they are more meaningful when coupled with a melody but I am interested in reaction to them standing alone.
