lyrics

i'm afraid to tell you that i'm sad.
because my favorite cat on the internet is sick,
i sat down and cried today.

and i imagine if you knew
all the things i feel
it'd be pretty scary.
it feels that way to me, too.
it feels that way to me, too.

the cats on my street keep me sane.
but that's too much pressure on little creatures
who don't even know my name.

and i imagine if you knew
all the windows i've looked into
it'd be pretty creepy.
it feels that way to me, too.
it feels that way to me, too.

looking in on lives i cannot have.
i love too easy, that's my problem,
but i'm trying
to direct it all to you, to give it all to you,
and tell you all the things in my head.

like last night, i had a nightmare.
dozens of cats were trying to get in the front door.
their shaking bodies covered with blood,
making streaks on the floor. and i said,
"please, please, please, you can't be in here.
please, please, please, i don't wanna hurt you.
your bones would crack in my hands."

and i imagine if you knew
all the things i fear
it'd seem pretty crazy.
it feels that way to me, too.
it feels that way to me, too.
