Hopscotch
Walking on eggshells
Some might say
Dodging the bullets
But it's all a game
To her, when it's over
She presses replay
But I'm stuck reloading, preempting her rage
Jumping from boulders
To sand particles
Just standing still
Punched by her arsenal
She's got a headache so
You're responsible
Don't try to medicate, it's just not possible
Hey little one outside playing
Hopscotch In the garden
How naive you must have been
Hey little one you are not to blame
Whichever number you jump on
It's always gonna rain
Stomping of footsteps
The distant grows near
Listening to what's next
Then coiling up with fear
Don't move an eyelash
Or even twitch an ear
But when the footsteps pass
My cheeks still feel a tear
Hey little one outside playing
Hopscotch In the garden
How naive you must have been
Hey little one you are not to blame
Whichever number you jump on
It's always gonna rain
Too young, too trusting
To know the cause of the rusting
Too young, too loving
To see it wasn't nothing
Hey little one outside playing
Hopscotch In the garden
How naive you must have been
Hey little one you are not to blame
Whichever number you jump on
It's always gonna rain
Odd, even, they all make her mad
But don't don't jump at all
She gets even angrier at that
Hey little one outside playing
Hopscotch in the garden
How naive you must have been
Some might say
Dodging the bullets
But it's all a game
To her, when it's over
She presses replay
But I'm stuck reloading, preempting her rage
Jumping from boulders
To sand particles
Just standing still
Punched by her arsenal
She's got a headache so
You're responsible
Don't try to medicate, it's just not possible
Hey little one outside playing
Hopscotch In the garden
How naive you must have been
Hey little one you are not to blame
Whichever number you jump on
It's always gonna rain
Stomping of footsteps
The distant grows near
Listening to what's next
Then coiling up with fear
Don't move an eyelash
Or even twitch an ear
But when the footsteps pass
My cheeks still feel a tear
Hey little one outside playing
Hopscotch In the garden
How naive you must have been
Hey little one you are not to blame
Whichever number you jump on
It's always gonna rain
Too young, too trusting
To know the cause of the rusting
Too young, too loving
To see it wasn't nothing
Hey little one outside playing
Hopscotch In the garden
How naive you must have been
Hey little one you are not to blame
Whichever number you jump on
It's always gonna rain
Odd, even, they all make her mad
But don't don't jump at all
She gets even angrier at that
Hey little one outside playing
Hopscotch in the garden
How naive you must have been
