Perpetuate the game of playing with my life
Yet no power would exhaust me
I'm filled with dignity and self respect
The truth will one day set me free
...
Cry little bird in your nest you cry
Close to your wings let no one fly
Dig out today all the deepest of pains
Don't stop until it actually rains
...
Meet me yesterday,
I'm going back to sleep;
in the dried-up garden,
by the cornfield.
