Everlasting Vixen by Melodie Yvonne
How I feel most every day is something that’s not written
I put these feelings out there but so many more are hidden
I’m not quite sure just what to do but soon I’m sure I’ll burst
If I don’t just swallow all this pride and let you quench your thirst
I need another savior ‘cause I’m just not over you
I’ve analyzed my problem ‘til it’s eyeballed through and through
But somehow I can’t ever find the thing that’s gonna fix it
You’re the bane of my existence and my everlasting vixen
I’m keepin’ mostly to myself just tryin’ to keep from drownin’
I’m barely treadin’ water but can hide if I’m not frownin’
I’m spendin’ mostly all my time just tryin’ to keep me busy
Just a-tryin’ to keep from wonderin’ if you’re ever gonna miss me
I need another savior ‘cause I’m just not over you
I’ve analyzed my problem ‘til it’s eyeballed through and through
But somehow I can’t ever find the thing that’s gonna fix it
You’re the bane of my existence and my everlasting vixen
Oh I need another savior ‘cause I’m just not over you
I’ve analyzed my problems ‘til they’re eyeballed through and through
But somehow I can’t ever find the thing that’s gonna fix it
You’re the bane of my existence and my everlasting vixen
Oh the bane of my existence and my everlasting vixen
