Carbon Leaf


It's been said keep your head 
my therapy is a wooden shed 
gave and inch and you took my yard 
now the mowing is twice as hard 
I guess that's o.k. but next time 
just stay away 
true I'm selfish they'll not bother me 
don't know where I keep my favorite tree 
this is my day here 
ask when it's not so clear 
call me when the lines are down 
I won't be around 
never took that second look 
find the trail that leads to the hollow nook 
double back 
back on track 
stack my apples in a weathered sack 
I'll come across it if it crosses my mind 
I'll come across it should I try to find 
keep the pace but end the race 
no more starch and a lot more space 
tell me your coming 
that makes two 
run and hide 
away from you 
never knew your needs required 
constant I.V. 
never knew your needs required 
constant me 
I'm not your food for thought 
can barely feed myself 
what is lost can be regained 
just look high on the shelf 
one one at a time and we roll along
