I
AM THE OWNER OF THIS COAT
I
am the owner, the owner of this coat
Brown
eyed, small
Without
a hope,
Soon
to perish, soon to cry
Just
so you may wear, my fur with pride...
You
may not wonder, how I feel
N'
you may not know, my pain is real
But
I wonder, how you live with YOU
As
you live with me -
Now
I'm through...
Yes
I grace your neck, oh I keep you warm
And
through my death, there's your careless arm -
Oh
you're stroking oh, what once was alive
My
heart, my bone, laid aside...
Now
I'm merely, dirt and dust
Just
a memory, of broken trust
Just
an animal, for you to KILL
A
trinket made of life, for your fashion thrill...
Oh
I have no voice
Oh
I have no name
Just
a wretched piece of meat
Drowning
in vain
Oh
speak for me now
Oh
please hear my plea..
Oh
don't, don't, don't, don't turn your back on me...
SOLO
I
am the owner, the owner of this coat
Brown
eyed, small
Without
a hope,
Soon
to perish, so soon to cry
Just
so you may wear, my fur with pride....
