It's always been in my nature |
|
I am at my happiest |
|
Sitting out on the cricket pitch |
|
Eating broken lolly sticks |
|
And raisins covered in chocolate |
|
It's always been in my nature |
|
it is just a bugabear |
|
It tags along with me everywhere |
|
It pinches me and it pulls my hair |
|
and it giggles and flicks my ears as it pokes fun at me |
|
It nibbles at my fingernails while I'm asleep |
|
I sit on a swing seat in the breeze |
|
Watching the leaves fall off the trees |
|
And even though it looks sad to me |
|
Nature always dies so beautifully |
|
It's always been in my nature |
|
it is just the way it is |
|
I sink it and it resurfaces |
|
It scratches at my bandages |
|
And it wriggles over all my calluses and sores |
|
It tickles but it doesn't hurt me anymore |
|
The flowers stick out their tongues at me |
|
Scrabbling around on my hands and knees |
|
As I pick up all the fallen leaves |
|
And try to glue them back onto the trees |
|
I try to glue them back onto the trees |
