Hounds At Bay

Hounds At Bay

Hunger and craving
The jaws and the teeth
Lusting and longing
No chain, no leash
I will be hunted again
If you ever leave

Stay, you keep the hounds at bay
Stay, you keep the hounds at bay

Safe under cover
Of your pulse and your breath
Shielded and sheltered
In the heat and the sweat
If a distance should grow between us
I’ll have no defence

Stay, you keep the hounds at bay
Stay, you keep the hounds at bay
