"The Selfish Verses of the Salem Princess" Khatoon Hazara ||| 6:15PM fri. 4.5.19

1. 

Something catches the wind

The trees are silent again

And I wonder where I hid my pride

Serpentine the intertwine

Keep the guards in place

I haven’t recovered from losing my face

Keep the guards on this case 

Don’t lose focus

Don’t erase

I’m kinda lost

The girl behind isn’t keeping up to my time

She says I’m moving a little too fast for her

And she’s scared

Don’t lose the candle, lose the flame

And if you just get in deep

Go deeper into the game

I am

I am not

I am

I am not

Not...

I am.... not

2. 

I’m still a little hung from the day before

I don’t remember ever going that far

Don’t play me like you didn’t break my heart

Or left me in the dark

I know the difference between love and lust

Don’t tell me I didn’t get what you meant when you said I was loving too much

He left and he paid the price

Wasn’t it an interesting night

Full of late late -

Full of- escape ...

I was so angry 

I was so numb

I didn’t get it

When he said enough

Or was it the inverse

Was it some curse 

Casted by a witch that saw us last night 

2a. 

I had a chat with the guard

He said he didn’t leave

He said he saw everything

He said I had too much to drink

He called me a cab to go home 

Then he remembered he was stationed outside my front door

And he admitted

He said he drank from a guy that came here that night

The one he said he saw me with

He said he gave him the same thing he gave me

That must’ve been 

What tripped me up

And made me think

It was all my fault

So now I think I get it

He was using me to get it

But that doesn’t explain the way I am

That doesn’t explain why

How come he had to drug me to get what he wanted

He could’ve just asked me

He could’ve just used one of my friends

Tho they weren’t quite friends

Just some girls I’d see now and then 

3. 

I wonder if they knew about that group 

I wonder if they knew and didn’t tell me

They probably did 

I’d do the same
