When you're with the trees
and grass
The magic always seems to last
And how you love
to take your daughter there
And replace your worries
with the air
It's easier to stick with
What you've got
and take the hit in
All the forms
of prescribed medicine
Sunlight just ain't getting in
Did you miss a right hand turn?
It's always harder to be loved
when you love suffering
Have you seen
your younger pictures
With unborn brothers
and dead sisters?
Even though they're shot
on black and white
Your eyes have
never been so bright
I wonder if you dream
And if you do, what do you see?
Are there a thousand
childhood memories?
Suppressed Jungian shadow
aspect vulnerabilities
It's not easy
Do you wake to feel the day?
Or do you wake to get paid?
You didn't listen
You're in a game
You could say that it has meaning
But that sentiment is fleeting
When there's mortgages
around your neck
And your wife is sleeping
with her ex
Part of you doesn't mind
'Cause there's a bounce
in her step
She wears her favourite
yellow summer dress
And makeup saved for Sunday best
But the saddest thing of all
Is that it's for another lover
in another bed
Someday it will all be over
You were fearful, now you're older
And entirely dependent
On the people you neglected
What if there's no final answer?
The existential disaster
Could you learn
to love this precious life
Before it's too late?
