Clue in

I am like a snake

Please dear don’t let me in

I’ll wrap around your heart and never let go

Because that’s just how the poison flows

And even when you’re convinced I am the one

You’ll never want me here

 

I cannot bend to the rules

You think you’ve got me but you have no clue

I always think ahead

To the ocean beyond your understanding

And my heart will never stop pounding

To a beat that would kill you to match

 

Walk wisely, my dear

And when you see your girl never let her go

I am not the one you want

Not to act as your one and only

Treat me like a criminal

But please dear, don’t give me that
