Beast - Nina Kinert

Why do we always talk about things like this

Why do we always haunt each other down

Why do we always smoke those cigarettes

And drink a lot of wine

I know the kind of beast that I’ve become

I know I don’t always show my gratitude

I don’t always shut it when I’m spoken to

And I don’t understand the things that you say, anymore

I know it doesn’t show that I love you

I know that I don’t always like when children laugh

And I don’t give a damn about your 14 year old

But who am I trying to fool by acting this way

I need a lot of wine

I know the kind of beast that I’ve become
