Stray (Lyrical Poem | Kind of a Song – Hard to Say)

Just as a disclaimer, I wanted to mess around with writing a coldwave / darkwave song. Not the greatest lyrics in the world, but I had some fun writing it.

Stray

It’s just a very special day,
When you’re alone and in the way.
Is it something that I say?
When we’re going out to play.

You look at me like I’m a stray,
Please don’t think of me as prey.
I’m lucky that you start to sway,
Just stay away from me, okay?

When you run, when we run,
I think I’m having some fun.
Did you ever do this to someone?
A love affair for everyone.

You can’t say that we’re done.
You take it away one-by-one.
You said I was the favourite son,
Are you just the hired-gun?

You look at me like I’m a stray,
Please don’t think of me as prey.
I’m lucky that you start to sway,
Just stay away from me, okay?

Here we go, here we go
You’re gonna fuck up my flow.
You’re running outta ammo,
Slow it, slow it, don’t you owe?
Owe me this status quo.

You borrow from a little doe,
Your faux acts will show.
And now we will all come to know
The true you, try to go-go
You’ve reached the final plateau.

You look at me like I’m a stray,
Please don’t think of me as prey.
I’m lucky that you start to sway,
Just stay away from me, okay?
