The Idle Owl - A Summer of Words by the Empty Church

Life's a Nursery Rhyme

Birthed by the mountains
And raised by the dragon
Parts of me
On every dragged wagon

My list of goals
Has been sat there for years
The ones I wrote then
Now bring me to tears

I've moved on I've changed
New things I want to do
That list's no longer me
So I've left it with you

And it's far too quiet
I just don't buy it

I've been fortunate enough
To see the world
To dance and live life
In an incessant swirl

Been finding myself
And all that shit
I found my dying body
At the bottom of a ditch

Roped him out
Cleared those who'd thrown him in
He regained his energy
To the tune of a mandolin

Now I can't stop the twat
Bouncing around
As he sings his lungs out
Skipping uptown

I asked him what's changed mate
You seem high all the time
He replied I've finally discovered
Life's a nursery rhyme
