Use me like a tree
Engrave your initials
Thoughts and your feelings
But forget that they never leave me
No they never leave me
Mark me as your own
But you’re not the only one
They all come and go
And end up leaving for each other
Leave me for another
Use me like the water
Wash your pain away
Its fine if you leaving
But I’d prefer if you’d stay
But I’m fine either way
Told me I could trust you
I cut you some slack
My waves won’t hurt
So why didn’t you come back?
What was it that I asked?
I wanna be
A dog on the prairie
No worries
Not a thought in my mind
I wanna be
A dog on the prairie
Can’t take this
I don’t wanna fight
I wanna be
A dog on the prairie
Why are you being so on and off?
I wanna be
A dog on the prairie
Don’t wanna worry about you at all
Don’t wanna worry about you anymore
Use me like the shadows
When it gets too bad
Come take shelter
I’m with you everywhere
I’m yours
Said you believe my word
Over theirs
So why do you
Suddenly not care
About me
Use me like the air
Take as much as you can
Worried you won’t last
I see now I shouldn’t have
Given you a chance
Said we we had each other
And then you leave
Think I wouldn’t notice
But I notice everything
Slowly fade away
I knew it would happen
Just didn’t know when
Now I feel that sadness
I wanna be
A dog on the prairie
No worries
Not a thought in my mind
I wanna be
A dog on the prairie
Can’t take this
I don’t wanna fight
I wanna be
A dog on the prairie
Why are you being so on and off?
I wanna be
A dog on the prairie
Don’t wanna worry about you at all
Don’t wanna worry about you anymore
Don’t wanna waste my time
I tried to say it was just the start
Can’t convince you
To have a heart
Think of all those times
We stayed together
But now I know
Who you are
At least now you know who
I really am
