I'll tell you that I've told you so
rain falls down and evaporate
I'll say sorry but I don't gurantee I won't irritate

Cats run to me
They wrap themselves around my ankles
I try to leave
but they held me tighter
Tighter to the ground.

I'm rooted and I'm drowned
in the dark mirths of quick sand
Quick, take my hand.

Disappearing smiles
Myraids of emerald crowns
I'm blinded by its beauty
as such was I a filthy
little kid
everyone ditched.

Resigning eyes
tears gone dry
a deepened wrinkle
cats they whimper
and beg to be free
I said no, upon no decree.

saddened expressions
counted ways of deception
from one to ten
who is my friend?
and yet, in it together they remain
bundled up in the cold misty rain.

That was really crazy but I think I understand, is this song full of metaphores? like the cats, and the quicksand, well that is how I see it in my eyes and I will take your poem in with my meaning.
