Rolling gait,
open path,
iron doors,
beyond the marble cherry trees lies the forest floor.

Out at last,
crunching leaves,
flowing stream,
sneaking out the courtyard making sure not to be seen.

Ahoy! The cuckoo and bristled bear,
kissing trout and downy hare
I've come to learn your earthen dance!
Fox and vixen's hidden den,
lead me to the river's end
and whisper secrets of the stag's royal prance.

Naked moon,
maple's shadow,
ripened berries,
into the grove I go to council with the fairies.

Waterfall,
curtained plunge,
the twigs beneath my feet,
It is here that I shall stay, lost in Mother's beat.

I said I'll be fine
But I was hoping you'd find
That it wasn't alright
That I told you a lie
And I know it seems wrong
But I've waited so long
And I've tried to be strong
I just want to belong
I'm telling you here
All my secrets and fears
So I'm begging you dear
Won't you lend me your ear
I can't go on like this
I'd rather not exist
I feel alone and amiss
Even though you resist

I don't have you
Or her or him
So I'm reading the signs
And my chances are slim
I've got no one to care
My fire's grown dim
So I'm ending it all
With a countdown from ten

I look away in silence,
As time stands still,
I didn't mean to,
I can't explain how I feel,
I was so wrong to play heel.
It's not me as one to kill.

And my heart could bleed for you,
And it wouldn't change a thing,
I kept lying over and over,
Still the lies remain the same.

If I could go back to do it all again,
I would protect you oh so dearly,
I would treat you just like kin.

And the fallout is always the same,
Every time I look in the mirror,
I know I'm the one to blame.

There once was a man from Nantucket,
He found "Yo dawg" and Lolrus and Bukkit,
The lolcats were there
In Chuck Norris’ hair,
And he followed steps 1, 2, ?, PROFIT!
