Cryptic dog
Haunted by goats                                            A conscious plant
                                                           ­                 A mid-life crisis
                                                                ­            

My face is crushed with a foot print
I'm afraid to leave the room
I got two dollars and a breath mint
no flowers bloom

I don't know why I'm sweating
But I can't breathe
I am a dog that needs petting
but I get beat

I am too lazy to get up
I'm skin and bone
there is a light in the attic
but no one's home

Life hurts
My heart is broke
Life hurts
Until you croak
