BIRTHDAY
she lives in this house over there,
has her world outside it.
SCRABBLES IN the earth with her fingers
and her mouth--she's five years old.
thread worms on a string,
keeps spiders in her pocket,
collects fly-wings in a jar scrubs horse flies
and pinches them on a line.
she's got one friend he lives next door,
they listen to the weather,
he knows how many freckles she's got,
she scratches his beard.
she's painting huge books,
glues them together,
they saw a big raven;
it glided down the sky--she touched it.
today's a BIRTHDAY they're SMOKING cigars,
he got a chain of flowers,
sows a bird in her knickers,
they're SMOKING cigars,
lie in the bathtub,
chain of flowers.feel the things i do
i transfer my dreams to you
a journey through your mind
logical explanations hard to find
develop your own identity
to get back into reality
feel your dreams come true
i will become a part of you
chorus:
i wish you could get
the false of hate and regret
i wish you could see
the truth inside of me
remember all the things you did
more strange feelings hard to hit
frightening memories of a kind
another journey through your mind
can't you hold my hands,
become much more like friends
i open up my arms for you
just a tiny small thing to do
