Buffalo Grass

Saw you once and you looked so sweet Saw you twice and I felt complete Three times thought I'd get some peace Dozen times and there's no release And I was already gone And life goes on in white and black Cloaking the stealth of your attack The tendrils creep through every crack And every time I cut you off You grow right back Like buffalo gra*s You crawled across my heart Oh like buffalo gra*s Wrapped yourself around my heart Day goes by and I think I feel clean Week goes by and I feel serene Month goes by like you're just a dream Year goes by I'm back on my knees When I was already gone But since you first infected me We've been connected karmically Should I escape your gravity In every other solar system There you'll be Like buffalo gra*s You crawled across my heart Oh like buffalo gra*s Wrapped yourself around my heart Like buffalo gra*s You crawled across my heart Oh like hele hele Cat claw across my heart Empires fall and the roach will rule Lifetimes pa*s and I'm still your fool Universe collapses in a silvery pool Watering the root that connects me to you
