when did it all get small
when did it all get small
no one mows the garden any more
they boarded up the windows and the door
thistles are taking over
thistles are taking over
humans left the playground to the wolves
wild eyes bear witness to the thorns
squinting through a sieve
squinting through a sieve
the ice cream man is trying not to drip
but he's sure he thought he saw the curtain twitch
are we heading back somewhere
or making something new
how can you be certain that the sun will come
I repeat myself
intruder in the past
was it someone else
intruder in the past
all the bonds are breaking
all the bonds are breaking
flaking in slow motion till the spring
shadow on the wall invites me in
in for the long ride
in for the long ride
endlessly unsatisfied
they'll cast me out of town when the wind arrives
are we returning
was it something that we heard
how can you be certain that the sun will come
I repeat myself
intruder in the past
was it someone else
intruder in the past
