The Painted Road - Nature Lyrics

Little fishes
Swimming around
In that tank
I'm god
To them
So they think
They're wild
They're free
But only as
Much as
I want
Them to be

Plants and water
Are all the same
They're no different than
The human being

My blood
Runs because
Of the bees
My lungs
Are filled
Because of trees
You think
I'm crazy
You should think
Like this
Sometime maybe
You might benefit

Trees and birds
Are all the same
They're no different than
The human being

We know
More about
Space than sea
Everytime we
Go there
We discover a
New species
That place
Largely a mystery
Much like
Out bodies
Nature's perfect complexity

Flowers and sunshine
Are all the same
They're no different than
The human being

Dance around
Lilly pads
In the pond
Mr. Frog
On top
That's not safe
A hawk
Swoops around
The frog's letdown
I laughed
Nature's funnier
Than this town

Rocks and space
Are all the same
They're no different than
The human being
