Avenpitch Housecat Lyrics

Housecat Lyrics

I gave her a back scratch a black attack

And now shes feeding and
feeding

And always deceiving and shes always wanting more

Never
satisfied with simple household chores

When I gave her an inch, she bit
off my arm

And when I started to twitch

I realized I got more, so
much more

Than Id ever bargained for



We use to go out on
Sundays and have a little fun

She use to wait around the door for my
workday to be done

She use to owe it all to me

I was her knight in
shining armor

Maybe its the cocaine or maybe the pills

Or its the
side effects of her freewill

Thats got her tied up and tangled in
knots

Forcing smiles and getting off



Maybe its the drugs or
maybe its love

Or maybe its something that I never really wanted
anyway

But thats okay, shes my housecat



Just one more is all
I ask of you

If you were me you would too

And their faces all look
so jaded

Like their souls have been confiscated

And put away in
little boxes

Where scientists remove the toxins

And eat up the best
parts of the brain

Just to be socially sane



Maybe its the
drugs or maybe its love

Or maybe its something that I never really wanted
anyway

But thats okay, shes my housecat



Maybe its the feeling
of contempt

Or maybe its the feeling of regret

That made me hate the
ways

That she couldnt ever change



Maybe I know I can
survive

Her last ditch suicide

And now I know that I was blind

But she was never all that kind
