Elfi Snow: Music

The Accused

(Elfi Snow)
Being accused again s
Sure, it’s my fault.
It’s always my fault.

Fish in the tank
Beating against the glass
They want to get out
But out means death

I could have stayed a little longer
But my breathing was shallow
Do you want me?
Or do you want me alive?

I am desert. Parched and wrinkled. Babied by God.
Cradled in sand. Vast and small. A dry sense of humor.

I could have had you for dinner
But you tasted bitter
Do you want me?
Or do you want me alive?

Cat in the house. Can’t go out. She as no claws.... And no protection.

I could have stayed a little longer
But my breathing was shallow
Do you want me?
Or do you want me alive?
Do you want me alive
Do you want me alive
