Big thanks to Clare Bell's "Book of the Named" series for inspiration on this and on track 4.

lyrics

They said to fear it
But your lives are slipping away
I've seen we can wield it
If you choose to learn the way
Watch it dance like the tip of your tail
Watch it consume, remember the words to its song I sang
...
Go on, bare your throats to me
I bring you power, make you more than these...
If you choose to cast me out
You'll feel my burning rage, for
When I return you will feed this creature

They told me I'm barely out of spots
And what am I doing, joining with this rebel lot?
I'm just trying to make it to the next day
Letting the wind fan my rage
(and I may not want to grow inside)
Gotta keep this little flame alive
Little fire
For I've seen what you can sire
(but I can't hide from myself, can I?)
So keep in mind my words
...
So go on, feed my fire!

Driven from the home I just found
And I see the net closing round
Will I lose everything I cared about
For something I don't know I want anymore?
Watch it dance like the tip of my tail
And glint off my claws
Can I live by that law?
But it's too late to change my spots
...
It's too late to change my spots

Vertigo Fox enjoys long walks and hikes, though the cats he inevitably encounters always tell him they're prowls.
