Gabbie Hanna - LUNCH lyrics

We sat together and ate our pizza
As if everything was okay

We watched together as a bird hopped along
With a beetle as it's prey

We stared together as the violent bird
Ripped the beetle to shreds
His ferocious beak tearing away
At the beetle's oozing head

We gawked together as the beetle tried
To free herself from his beak

A fight to be free the outcome bleak-
I was grateful for the company

I wondered if the beetle understood
The permanence of dying

I was horrified you were fascinated-
Both of us fell silent

The empty shell of the beetle fell-
The bird hopped away unfazed

We sat together and ate our pizza
As if everything was okay
