The red and the orange under the bark of a tree the dragons, they flow around the twists and the turns in the shade it is cool in the sun you may burn sing to the mountains to see what you learn the lights in the sky sense you walk by the mountains are waiting they know you are shy they know you're afraid and you wanna get paid but the hole in your soul yeah it won't go away if you fill it with space... go with the flow continue to grow follow your soul Hold up a thumb with no place to run but someone to find who loves like the sun or maybe a van that starts with a plan strum your guitar and perhaps get a tan sing to the streets for something to eat some cash for some gas none for shoes for your feet home's anywhere 'cause you make me complete... go with the flow continue to grow follow your soul The mountains of pines that grow in straight lines leave me a wood staff that aged over time one more day has passed I should want to collapse my paper maché soul is made up from maps the paper-cut clouds that don't make a sound cast patches of darkness- drift along the ground the sharp taste of blood the warmth of the flood I never expect that I'm biting my tongue... go with the flow continue to grow follow your soul

Stolen Rhyme-Scheme
The red and the orange under the bark of a tree the dragons, they flow around the twists and the turns in the shade it is cool in the sun you may burn sing to the mountains to see what you learn the lights in the sky sense you walk by the mountains are waiting they know you are shy they know you're afraid and you wanna get paid but the hole in your soul yeah it won't go away if you fill it with space... go with the flow continue to grow follow your soul Hold up a thumb with no place to run but someone to find who loves like the sun or maybe a van that starts with a plan strum your guitar and perhaps get a tan sing to the streets for something to eat some cash for some gas none for shoes for your feet home's anywhere 'cause you make me complete... go with the flow continue to grow follow your soul The mountains of pines that grow in straight lines leave me a wood staff that aged over time one more day has passed I should want to collapse my paper maché soul is made up from maps the paper-cut clouds that don't make a sound cast patches of darkness- drift along the ground the sharp taste of blood the warmth of the flood I never expect that I'm biting my tongue... go with the flow continue to grow follow your soul
I say stolen because the rhyme scheme was based on or similar to that of the song "Needles" by Grand Salvo.. great song
