lyrics

i was digging for beauty in this mountain of mud
i was searching for water in this puddle of blood
i flew with the birds
and i came back with words
i also tried to produce and create
(that’s right)
even with your despise and hate
i’ve been so broken but i grew back again
i used to be a cloud but now i am the rain
i know i’m the fork among the spoons
i like to eat pork while you eat your shrooms
it’s like i’m the New York in Saskatoon
i am the nightmare in your bedrooms
now that i know that trees can grow on ruins
i was digging for beauty in this mountain of mud
i’m just building this boat before the flood
now that i know that trees can grow on ruins
i am the stranger in the saloon
i am the bee on your balloon
now i can be your plush toy raccoon
i’ll be back soon
