Green Delight

The green pastime
pastures sweet and tame
...

All the midnight callings
'round my shoe, 'round my shoe
all the midnight callings
from me to you, from me to you
...

Looking out the window at the pretty scenery
it seems so peaceful that it's hard to believe
how many of us live so pointlessly
like shop for stuff you don't need
...

Claws digging in to me
ripping open my skin
I'm ready to smile
and let you in
...

The cars go by this window
they never stop
just whoosh
wish
...

The grass glowed with light,
effervescent green bouncing,
under the blue,
radiant air flowing around,
...

A moment passed
that I'll never get back
a glimpse into something I knew
a glimpse into something
...

Pretending to be me
but I'm still me
staring at eternity
it's my middle name that's never changed
...

I want to have a smile
instead of a frown
but I've been let down
way too many times
...

she's got junk
health falling to pieces
leftover pieces on the ground
that was her life
...
