Gonna lay down in the grass And watch that acorn split in two Slowly take root While the clock upon the wall makes idle boasts And my mindÂŽs out cruising silent coasts
Though the ghosts of better days might twist my eyes Gonna stand my ground, watch that sapling rise Just as long as Iâve the strength, well, IÂŽll raise that flag Like a wisp of cloud from a mountain crag
Now, this is awkward I kept it bottled up too long
Years like tiny drops of rain on a glassy lake Leaving nought but circles in their wake Though we barely comprehend what the question is Only know for certain, the answerâs yes
Now this is awkward Really donât know where to being
I kept it bottled up too long (I know that feeling too, yeah) Donât ask me where the time has gone (I know that feeling too, yeah) Days I canât tell no right from wrong (I know that feeling too, yeah) I kept it bottled up too long (Know that feeling, know that feeling) Tell me about it, tell me about it, tell me about it (Like sunlight breaking through, yeah) Tell me about it, tell me about it, tell me about it (I know that feeling too)
Gonna lay down in the grass And watch that acorn split in two
