Wolf In Seep's Clothing

For a moment I lived in fear of the hourglass It's funny how quickly those feelings can pass Because now I cant seem to get away from you fast enough You have a world class poker face, I almost missed your bluff But I'm calling it out, all chips are in Mght as well fold now, cuz I'm gonna win Put your cards on the table, reveal your hand How I almost fell for it, I'll never understand You pulled the wool right down over my eyes A wolf in sheep's clothing, what a clever disguise You huffed and you puffed and you blew my walls down Now I'm reduced to a pile of debris left strewn on the ground Right back where I started, familiar resent Mulling over the misfortune of wasted time spent Biting the bitter bullet of unrequited cares Peeling out my feeling, layer by woeful layer.
