| Rebirth While Raking Leaves The door slams shut with tears in his eyes but I cannot change cannot go back or take it back cannot see myself anywhere but a small dark hole full of loneliness God will send me there a place I said I need a place but why should they offer me anything when I have slammed all those doors with no small glee and now they are saying yes and Greece and really I say really but I am only here to rake the leaves why would I say no I have nothing I never wanted this only so badly that I know I'll wreck it I'll disappoint you more tears in his eyes but this time no rabbit-hole or cake-walk I sing freak songs to myself all the way there but it is not in their eyes never in their pierced hands only in my own ravaged heart that I don't belong here everything's changing turning upside down and I am part of it astonished to find that I am healing. |
