You Are The Master


I am tied up in the burning sun.
baby, you are my only shade.
you're the bowl of water beyond my reach.
i can only move the distance of this chain.
i chew anything you will give me.
eat anything, even my own words.
scramble for any morsel you throw,
you scatter hope like scraps of food.
I guess you are the master.
i am the dog.
i am the dog.
waiting for you to love me.
I am jumping on you for affection.
i would love to lick your face.
you scold me, you push me off.
i'm your loyal bitch, a man's best friend.
i lie here and lick my wounds,
from my little bed of wishes.
i run to you in my dreams.
i pine for you in my life.
I guess you are the master.
i am the dog.
i am the dog.
waiting for you to love me.
I have no sense of time at all.
twenty minutes or twenty years,
it's all the same.
i am your muse, you are my muse,
broken hearts.
baby please show me some mercy,
don't put me down.
I guess you are the master.
i am the dog.
i am the dog.
waiting for you to love me.
