Sketches
That one nursery rhyme that sticks in my mind
The only one I remember
In fact I arrived to conclusions
Before I began
Ashes to ashes like beautiful sand
That's not the only thing that I fear
I've toyed with the notion of going back to school.
I've spent the best part of a decade drawing sketches
Yet I'm still a blank canvas
Instead I'll cover myself in band-aids
In a preemptive effort to save my skin.
If you're anything like me you've never felt more at home
When you're as far away from it as possible
Now I'm bringing it back to that birthday I had
The only one I remember
In fact I expected nothing
But you were there
You remembered
You cared.
Now that I pushed you away
Does that explain how I feel nothing
Nothing and for what reason
And why I approach
Life just looking for ways to risk it
Taking every chance I can grab
And never looking back
At times that I ran
I'd close my eyes
Forgetting all about them in the end.
Yeah, I've spent the best part of a decade drawing sketches
Yet I'm still a blank canvas
Life, no reason to ignore it
Or even be afraid of things.
When you try to make sense
Out of something you just can't it only
matters that you tried and tried again.
The only one I remember
In fact I arrived to conclusions
Before I began
Ashes to ashes like beautiful sand
That's not the only thing that I fear
I've toyed with the notion of going back to school.
I've spent the best part of a decade drawing sketches
Yet I'm still a blank canvas
Instead I'll cover myself in band-aids
In a preemptive effort to save my skin.
If you're anything like me you've never felt more at home
When you're as far away from it as possible
Now I'm bringing it back to that birthday I had
The only one I remember
In fact I expected nothing
But you were there
You remembered
You cared.
Now that I pushed you away
Does that explain how I feel nothing
Nothing and for what reason
And why I approach
Life just looking for ways to risk it
Taking every chance I can grab
And never looking back
At times that I ran
I'd close my eyes
Forgetting all about them in the end.
Yeah, I've spent the best part of a decade drawing sketches
Yet I'm still a blank canvas
Life, no reason to ignore it
Or even be afraid of things.
When you try to make sense
Out of something you just can't it only
matters that you tried and tried again.
