Man and Woman
I am a dog
You are a snake
You are a snake
I am a dog
It sounds like the same thing.
With out a sign of remorse, I make a mess, I up and leave
Without a trace, your hands, in and out the cookie jar, slick you are
Heads and tails, different, but of the same coin
I forgive with a shout and scream,
You forgive with tears and a grin,
Scary.
Sniffing and pointing fingers appeases your guilt,
Telling lies, half truths and ultimately confessing eases mine,
My lies are like a toddler, all over the place,
One lie exposed by the other, in my case
One lie strengthened by the other, in your case
I, forever man.
You, forever woman.
But apples of the same tree, that we are.
Adam and Eve.
Adam, stupid enough to be brave,
Eve, devious enough to even dear.
I am a dog
You are a snake
You are a snake
I am a dog
It sounds like the same thing.
