Take A Day

Once upon a time when there were no flowers

It was survival of the sweetest

Beckoning to, and promising you…

A fine line between poison and perfume 

These days it’s all for the predator

And nothing for the prey

After running around for so many years

It’s time that i took a day 

Like a black widow spider

I’m looking for a place to hide’

Cause the porch light still comes on at night

Even tho’ there aint nobody livin’ inside 

Now I’m setting my sights on the future

Rejecting the pleasures of the moment

I’ll never raise a white flag even tho’

The hero seldom lives to see the credits roll
