green + evergreen

through the oak and poison ivy

as the lemon light was alkalining

i was growing

i was dying

growing i was dying

bright and brighter through the trees

looking up at green and evergreen

free and looking to be free

looking to be free

bright and brighter through the trees

looking to be free

tipping scales and tablespoons

i'm alive and in the living room

it's dark and getting darker soon

and darker soon

diving into shallow waves

where the margins and the measures fade

the path is closed but a way remains

a way remains

diving into shallow waves

a way remains

with time to kill and space to roam

the hedges grew till they were overgrown

over everything i knew and know

everything i know

villains now and heroes then

where the boundary bends

begins and ends

things will change and change again

and change again
