Stealing Hugs

I sneak a peek now and then

Stopping time with the truth's lens

Too far apart these moments be

Won't you just relax with me?

I understand the crying game

Look around, let's pass the blame

To deny the truth and prefer a lie

is just a different way to die

To risk it all on evidence

I don't stand a fighting chance

An old dog cannot learn new tricks

So I take this knife's sharp nicks

I take what is safe and sound

So I don't have to endure my heart's pound

Cloud me up so I don't feel…

and then just hugs I'll always steal.
