Lyric

There was a cat with eyes so bright

Roaming free in the pale moonlight

Soft fur glowing like a gentle flame

Everyone knew and loved his name

But hands reached out with claws unseen

Promises broke like shattered dreams

One by one they left their scars

Turned his world into cold

Distant stars

Now his heart's a stone

Won't let it feel

Locked away

No wounds to heal

Everyone's stupid

He won't be fooled

The world’s too cruel

The cat's old rule

Once a purr could melt the night

Now his growl's his only fight

Trust turned bitter

Love turned gray

The cat chose stone

Kept pain away

He walks alone

No need for care

A shadow moving

Unaware

Of the ones who watch and yearn to mend

But the cat knows better

Hearts don’t bend

Now his heart's a stone

Won't let it feel

Locked away

No wounds to heal

Everyone's stupid

He won't be fooled

The world’s too cruel

The cat's old rule
