The walk back home begins when you're far away off course It doesn't seem to matter where you've been when you've got remorse But every move you make and especially all you've faked It's all burnt by the sun onto your back You touch softly yet entangled in contract And you say you're almost human But that's too easy That's too easy to say A bird is free, they say, and the world's just one more cage The sage just smiles and stares all the time at the monster's rage It's carbon, pure and simple and droplets that make ripples A long and dark December But hold onto your head Temper, temper And you say you're almost human But that's too easy That's too easy to say
