Savages

You were hurricane

And I’m still stuck standing in the rain

You carry a switch blade

Always ready to carve your name

We were savages

Summer steamed off our skin

On to mattresses

In the morning we would do it again

I am ready to disappear

It’s a stampede

You know love it when it’s hard to breathe

No I ain’t that tough

Smile like you do

Honey call my bluff

I said knock me down

Go and run my name in the ground

I want to be savages

Hold lightning in my mouth

Until it don’t make a sound.

And I am ready to disappear

I want to be savages
