The Trees and the Wild

The future is belligerent

Tells me work and worry

Even without sense

You stick to plans

Concepts are embarrassing

When you let them drink

They tell you what they think

I'm not listening

I look back to the trees and the wild

I look back to see you smile

My street is ambivalent

It makes sure to tell me

Doesn't have to know

If I come or go

I look back to the trees and the wild

I look back to see you smile

I've heard of people building houses

I heard they use their arms

Somewhere so much stronger

I think I wander

I look back to the trees and the wild

I look back to see you smile

I can beat myself up

With success and daring

Better than you could

I think I'm pretty good

I look back to the trees and the wild

I look back to see you smile
