Lost in a daydream
Walking down the street
One mind always racing
A sluggish pair of feet
One long sunny day
A million opaque nights
A land without a king
Things equal alright
Kids in a sandbox
Throwing stones into the water
Hoping that it rains
So they can buy a quarter
Termites in the maple
Chewing threw the border
To crumble justification
Of a silly pecking order
Needing a million seconds
Of someone's stolen time
I lit my bed on fire
And burnt my concubine
Sorry scatterbrained scarecrow
That you hang on a stick
In a godforsaken forest
Ruled by a godforsaken witch
Exhale all the smoke
Jump into its billows
We can melt right through the floor
And hope to land on pillows
But with an incredible splash
We dropped in a lake
We got tangled up
When fate rewound the tape
So we should just travel
To the center of the Earth
And think about the world
A beginning or a birth?
In here we should stay
Laughing with the sun
When our beginning has began
Before we could have become.
