I Got Tired of Barking
I once fancied myself noble like a wolf
But when he beckoned I ran like a dog
I swallowed my pride, ceased my howling for what I deserved
And like a dog I crept back time and time again
Whether he, or love, was a crueler master I couldnβt say
It seems we both forgot that a cornered dog will still bite
I wonder if my jaws felt like a wolf to him
