I'd Like To Be...

I'd rather be
A flower or a tree
So that I wouldn't have to see
Myself smiling
Back at me

I'd nod in the wind
To my daddy's suggestions
That I root myself
And live
In re
Reality

Wouldn't have to talk
I'd just sit there on a stalk
And I'd slowly see the
People's empathy
Turn into rock

Oh can you feel the night is changing
A moon is rising in your soul
Oh the darkness brings contagion
And the lightness lets you grow

I'd rather see
The light come through the trees
Than to bend head
Like a bow
To the water down below

Slaughter a lamb
Her blood runs in the sand
Rivers of blood they feed
Feed the seas
Travelled by man
