In layers, my heart peels wider
This terrain is difficult, but I am equipped
Sad and heavy, lonely and misinterpret
Its not so new to me, this lonesomeness
Everyday it gets wheeled off the cart
And into the shop of this life I lead
This life I lead.. yes, this life I lead
Somber today, like drizzling rain
That magnifies an old souls pain
That brings the urge to leave for good
Abandon cause and greet the woods
The woods are aged, and free from sin
It's trees are old and understand
The weariness of wayward feet
It's branches spur and prosper peace
I love to sit on solid stones
and dive on through a murky tomb
I long to die and leave this world
But think I'll try to make it grow
Thats what our mother Earth might do
Despite the pains we put her through
We love our things, and run from her
Do we not see what love she stirs?
Are we so violent and obtuse
This villiany has taken root
With malice our sharp shovels dig
To excavate a place to sit
Im going to sit, ponder, and sink
Though wont betray the urge to drink
I am so sad today, it hurts
Yet even sadness bears its perks
