Boy & His Dog

[Verse] Dax was just ten, a little boy with a hefty grudge, Lived in a small town, where the air was thick with dust. Had a black cat named Midnight, the light of his heart, But a dog named Zeus, tearin' his world apart. [Verse 2] Midnight purred softly, always by his side, While Zeus was a shadow, he couldn’t hide. Tried to scare him away with kicks and loud hits, But the bond was unbreakable, couldn’t call it quits. [Chorus] Oh, life in a small town ain't as simple as it seems, Young hearts wrestle with their complicated dreams. Love for Midnight, a fur-black knight, Hatred for Zeus, despite all his might. [Verse 3] The nights were heavy, the house filled with strife, Dax believed Zeus was the bane of his life. But come dawn, and the dog would stand by the door, Eyes soft and pleading, yearning for more. [Bridge] Why does it hurt when love's so hard to find? A boy and his dog, emotions intertwined. Midnight watches quietly, knowing the truth, The heart must break to uncover its roots. [Chorus] Oh, life in a small town ain't as simple as it seems, Young hearts wrestle with their complicated dreams. Love for Midnight, a fur-black knight, Hatred for Zeus, despite all his might.
