boys, bugs and men Lyrics
You said those words and suddenly Im five
And boys are bringing bugs
Just to kill them for my eyes
And I can see their hunger looking for a sign
That any of their destruction has me suffering inside
You take such delight
In killing my light
If I dont make a sound
Does it even hurt
Im bending to the ground
Just to pick up little worms
And I have seen you relish
Such violence with a joy
That Ive only seen before
In the eyes of little boys
Discovering their power for the first time
You kissed me so hard I had a grazed chin
I saw your eyes spark at the breaking
And in them I see hunger
Looking for a sign
That any of your destruction had me suffering inside
It fills you with light
To take away mine
At the cutting of your tongue
All I hear is shredding wings
Before me is a man who cares not for little things
And now I have my answer from when I wondered who
Those little boys became
Because they grew up to be you
Youve been playing with your power for a long time
A long time
Youve been playing with your power for a long time
