Normal Kids

Take me back to when I was a kid
Stalking through the woods like I was from it
While all the normal kids kicked balls in the field
I watched them from the trees and prayed they didn't me
Cause I've got a secret
A forest temple
And i'll cast a spell on anyone who comes close

I wipe my bum with leaves
I wash in the stream
Sleep on a bed of moss up in the canopy
And my friends do come
To visit me
Of fur, and wing, and claw, and sting
And together we sing - the oldest song
Howling at the moon til there's no air in our lungs

Nothing changes, nothing changes
We're still kids with mud on our faces
Forest temple, forest temple
Won't you make this broken man right?

Here come the normal kids - crashing through the woods
Wielding sticks, and stones, and broken homes
And they're banging on the door of my forest temple
They're gonna burn it down then march east to London town
Where they'll get desk jobs and settle down

No way sir
Not for me
I've got Awen in my veins and a good dose of meant-to-be's
I've been saving them up for when i'm on my knees
Well yeah i'm on my knees

Nothing changes, nothing changes
We're still kids with mud on our faces
Forest temple, forest temple
Won't you make this broken man right?
