you're bathed and crowned
I'm bruised and torn
you're tied and cleaned
I'm shorn again
how will you raise or fall or will we try
I'm halfway pleased to meet you
you're still and cool below the fray
I'm stemmed and mapped
you're cut away
how will we raise or fall or will we try
I'm halfway pleased to meet you
I'm halfway pleased to meet you
you're shrunk and left I'm staid and grown
you're boxed and down
I stand alone
how will we raise or fall or will we try
I'm halfway pleased to meet you
I'm halfway pleased to meet you
I'm halfway pleased to meet you
