Divide Me By Sorrow
-
I dreamt that I
Was a clucking chicken
Taking my precious time
Laying a hen egg
When it hatched
I witness a miracle
The birth of food
For Safeway to sell of
Many times
This happened again for me
Now I'm making
A whole lot of money from it
Then I wake
And finally human again
No one but
A bucket of charm for me
Lapse of time
The whirlwind of change for me
Nothing but a hideous mistake
I don't want to eat love's grapes
No barrel of laughter can last for me
May I jot down my excuses
For letting love walk out on me?
I'm a beast and nothing works
Who cares?
It's over
Let it go
If I was to throw up madly
I would walk out on the devil
Who shaped my brain
And wake up, the chicken
I only dream to be
