lyrics

All I can think of is Stone and Earth,
no Fire, or Sky do I see,
all I can drink is the saltwater thirst,
I can find no well or spring

And all I have I have stolen,
and all Ive given was to myself,
none of my money is golden,
but money was never my wealth

And all of my burden is fiction,
I carry inside my head,
all of my life is so easy,
but I never can understand

And none of my Love is real,
at least that's what my friends say,
they might not be wrong to say it,
but it hurts me anyway

And all of my woes are common,
to every man, woman, and child,
but I'll never know how they do it,
whenever I see them smile

Oh the rose is the prettiest flower,
but a rose never smells like a lilac,
and neither will sustain you,
if it's food that you lack

But when ai lie facedown,
in the mud and the grass or Spring
if I hear a New Bird crying,
I still hope by summer She'll sing...
