SPIDERS

They craw and creep,

dig deep,

into your heart and brain.

Once they're in, nothing is ever the same.

Although your relationship is strange,

you'll never want it to change

because even though they might set you on fire,

you can't help but love a spider.

They spin webs that make you suffocate

to the point where you would disgrace

yourself to get free.

They'll get you into situations you won't believe.

They drag their venom all over your skin

and you can't tell where their wicked web begins

but even though most of them are liars,

you can't help but love a spider.

Their vile venom spreads into your skull

which makes your senses dull

to where you can't see or smell.

For a moment you'll think you're in Hell.

You'll scream and shout

and doubt

that things could ever be lighter

because you just had to love a spider.
