In The Cold

I bit the hand that fed me

and look where it led me

now I'm out in the cold

I guess I was just too bold

even though I was told 

this is where I would be 

they never believed I would leave

so why did I leave 

it just didn't seem real

being told how to feel 

I tried being myself

but I was someone else

now I'm out in the cold

I may be on my own 

but I'm not alone

there are others

my new sisters

my new brothers 

like me they've weathered the storm 

they're just looking for some place warm

so not only will we survive in the cold

but we'll thrive in the cold 

because I guess we're just too bold

either that or we're still hungry
