Nice To Meet You

Its nice to meet you too
but don't get to know me, I'm no good for you.
I don't know how to stay.
I've dealt with everything the wrong way.
So don't give your heart away...

I'm my own roots 
that I'm trying to get back to
and I'll just crack your naive heart.

I'm like a fox
stealing hens
out of safe pens
and tearing them apart.

You'll push your way in and I'll let you
then I'll kindly let you out my back door.
Can't show who I am cuz it'll scare you,
you're not even half prepared to meet my core.

Find some pretty little girl who
only knows how to love you,
and exhales hearts
and falls apart 
perfectly in your arms.

I'm like a predator
that has to kill
and I will, I will, I will.

I can be hurtful and mean
yet I'm not what I seem,
I'm worse.

You... can't handle me.
This is not a challenge.
Its a statement.
I couldn't be more frank.

You can't handle me.
Can't handle the truth 
that someone like me
could take you.

Now I'll step back
and you turn around 
and walk at a swift pace
and forget me now.

I'll turn my back now
and before I turn back around:
disappear.
