I Don't Bite

Don't meet your heroes, they say
If you wanna stay, then you should stay
Don't turn away
How many times did you lie to my face?
Soap in my mouth, tryna wash out the taste

Okay, my dear
You know I don't mind
You know I can't fight
You know I don't bite

We'll lay beneath the tree, collecting dust
My opinion of you is fair and just
I hope I outlive you
Don't wanna deceive you
Can't be too honest, but I must

Okay, my dear
You know I don't mind
You know I can fight
You know I can bite
