As I walk on down the street, the sun now burns my feet as I realise the ages of cages of animals underneath, each with price tags, for sale signs, and shopping bags.
A time and a place where their parents first did mate, their entire existence, wrapped up, opened up, and taken home.
I wish someone would take me home…
Hold me close,
Put on a fire,
Fulfil my desires, and…
Make me some toast.
Because every time I think, I think of you.
And when I do…
Emerging just to feed your bones!
Conversing so that you don’t feel old!
Now I may have realised too late but hey hey hey, that’s just fate!
So I…
Tie my tie,
Tie my shoes,
Put on a smile,
Fulfil my desires.
Because every time I think, I think of you.
And when I do... I…
Emerging just to feed your bones!
Conversing so that you don’t feel old!
Hold your breath until you get home!
Despite, what you’re told!
Intro/Outro, tell yourself.
Grow from the ground, into a mound.
Grow from the ground, into a mound.
Intro/Outro, tell yourself!
Intro/Outro, tell yourself.
Grow from the ground, into a mound!
For many years you got away,
Like a child at play.
For many years you got away,
And now it’s time to pay.
For many years you got away,
And now it’s time to pay.
For many years you got away,
Like a child at play.
Time to pay!
Intro/Outro! Tell yourself!
Grow from the ground! Into a Mound!
Hey!
The grass is greener on the other side.
Despite what you’re told.
