Up the hill
Friday Hill
To the top
Higher and higher
And then Faith
Or I'd be too late

Nature, nature, human nature

I scrolled down my news feed
There was a play of hate
The warring
Never ceased

It hits home
As it always does
You listen to the sounds of children playing in the pool
Watch them walking to school

And you think
What have I done with my hands and feet
In this great machine
Substituting someone
Close to me

Nature, nature, human nature
Tell me something about peace
Tell me something new
I haven't moved for a thousand years

The rivers are full of tears
I feel so lost
The God's are arguing in the sky
So loud
They can't hear me cry

Nature, nature, human nature
Tell me about yourself
Tell me about harmony
Tenderness and care
Because I can't find them written down anywhere

Nature, nature, human nature
Bring us together
From the day until night
Take me in your arms
Wake me up and put me to sleep

Nature, nature, human nature
I know you are there
I know you are everywhere
Is there a chord I can play
So that you can hear me?

After about a thousand days
It's not that they are all the same
But they are
So you have to put your best foot forward
With as much friendship and love
As you ever will have

The young cat at my foot sleeping
So innocent
He doesn't know
That tomorrow
I could get up, disappear and go

Juliet is at the door
Juliet wants to know more
She wants the details of the house
What's inside
Behind the windows

She has a lovely smile
I was a singing a wonderful song
And there she was a listening
All curious
With her bag over her shoulder
And her hair behind her ear

She tells me about her spouse
I tell her about the house
Every inch, every detail
Every secret a man can keep

She says she'll be back
It was nice to meet
She lives next door
But I never did see her anymore

Just a letter from the land lord
About his many eyes
And how our tenancy had shortened
To one week
No more

I see what you have there
You said you were so different
But not so

It shows
What are you doing what that anyway?
I'm not sure you really know

All I can say is to keep going
To the very end
Till its all out
All out in the open

And then you'll know



You ask yourself where freedom went
On making some, you're hell bent
Cavemen walk the earth tomorrow
Not yesterday
Didn't you know?


All I can say is to keep going
To the very end
Till its all out
All out in the open

And then you'll know


You said you could get us out of this mess
But there you were covered in it
There it was under your car
As you drove along, in clear view
How much gas do you have?

All I can say is to keep going
To the very end
Till its all out
All out in the open

And then you'll know

I’m at a party,  I have a party hat on and a sparkler in my hand, popping and bright
And everyone is deliberately not making eye contact with me
