I saw the life in the trees Looked past death’s taxes and fees Crept into locked corridors to see Nothing could catch up with me Control kept hands off of my heart Past baggage away I would cart Seasons blessed the shadows of the moon All the while I was becoming the neighborhood loon Reality kicked my side one day in June Days of bliss dragged until it was too soon I realized love was never floating around And just like that I wanted to be put in the ground

I ran with love but couldn’t keep up
I saw the life in the trees Looked past death’s taxes and fees Crept into locked corridors to see Nothing could catch up with me Control kept hands off of my heart Past baggage away I would cart Seasons blessed the shadows of the moon All the while I was becoming the neighborhood loon Reality kicked my side one day in June Days of bliss dragged until it was too soon I realized love was never floating around And just like that I wanted to be put in the ground
