HUSKER’D KITTY

INTRO

A lighter flicks.

A glass clinks.

Husk mutters,

“Don’t call me cute. I bite.”

⸻

VERSE 1

Cards on the table,

Whiskey on my sleeve,

I don’t need angels,

I don’t need to believe.

네 말투는 시끄러워—

Don’t bother me tonight,

I’m a broken-winged gambler

Picking my fights.

Don’t pet the cat

Unless you want claws,

I’m kind on accident,

Rage on pause.

I’ve seen too much

To fall for charm—

Come close enough,

You’ll meet my harm.

⸻

PRE-CHORUS

I don’t trust easy,

I don’t play soft.

One wrong word

And you get tossed.

If you stay,

That’s your own cost.

⸻

CHORUS

Husker’d kitty—

Scratch you up and drink your pity.

Husker’d kitty—

Broken heart but still so gritty.

You think I’m small?

Come test the claw.

I’ll burn your smug

Straight through your jaw.

Husker’d kitty—

Not yours, not pretty.

⸻

VERSE 2

I fold my feelings

Like a losing hand,

Better bruised alone

Than loved on command.

네 그림자 따라와도—

I don’t need saving,

Just a quiet bar

And a reason worth staying.

You hear my growl

But not my ache,

A lonely heartbeat

Forced awake.

I bluff my truth

Behind my drink—

Get too close,

You’ll make me think.

⸻

PRE-CHORUS

I don’t trust easy,

I don’t play soft.

One wrong word

And you get tossed.

If you stay,

That’s your own cost.

⸻

CHORUS

Husker’d kitty—

Scratch you up and drink your pity.

Husker’d kitty—

Broken heart but still so gritty.

You think I’m small?

Come test the claw.

I’ll burn your smug

Straight through your jaw.

Husker’d kitty—

Not yours, not pretty.

⸻

BRIDGE

If I cared,

I’d never say.

If I hurt,

I’ll drink it away.

I’m a stray

That stayed—

Barely.

⸻

FINAL CHORUS

Husker’d kitty—

Cursed with charm I never chose.

Husker’d kitty—

Heart like ash beneath the clothes.

If you stick around,

Then understand—

My love’s a storm,

Not something planned.

Husker’d kitty—

I bite who pities me.

⸻

OUTRO

Husk exhales smoke,

Eyes half-lidded:

“…Still not cute.”
