PATCHWORK QUILT AND ROCKING CHAIR

ALWAYS FELT SUCH COMFORT THERE

MAKES ME MELT THEY'RE QUITE A PAIR

SO WELL BUILT OLD FASHIONED CARE

THE NIGHT WAS DREAMY

FULL MOON REFLECTED 

IN RIVER RIPPLES

THE WIND WAS BREEZY

SO THAT AFFECTED

THE PICTURESQUE PULSE

TEASING YET PLEASING

SOMEHOW PERFECTED

A FLEETING IMPULSE

THE GRAVITY OF

THE SITUATION

ISN'T ALWAYS CLEAR

I GUESS IT DEPENDS

WHAT YOU FOCUS ON

AND WHAT YOU CHOOSE TO HEAR

TELL ME WHAT I WANNA HEAR

NOT WHAT I NEED TO KNOW

LET ME MAKE THAT PERFECTLY CLEAR

THAT'S JUST THE WAY THINGS GO

HOW DID THE ELEPHANT GET IN THE ROOM

HOW DID IT EVEN FIT THROUGH  THE DOOR

WELL I'M NOT SURE WHAT TO DO

BUT THERE'S SO MUCH TO EXPLORE

EVIL IS LIVE BACKWARDS

IT'S AS PLAIN AS DAY

WHY WOULD ANYONE

IN THEIR RIGHT MIND

WANT TO LIVE THAT WAY

COMFY AND COZY

SAFE AND SOUND

EVERYTHING'S ROSEY

ALL AROUND

 IF LIFE IS A STAGE

ARE WE PROPS OR ACTORS

I GUESS THAT DEPENDS

ON SO MANY FACTORS

WHEN YOU'RE ON A PAGE

DO YOU READ OR WRITE

HOW DO YOU ENGAGE

DO YOU SWALLOW OR BITE

WHICH DO YOU CHOOSE

TO WIN OR TO LOSE

OR JUST GIVE UP

CUZ YOU'VE HAD ENOUGH

WHO FLEW THE COUP

WHEN THEY WEREN'T READY

AND RUFFLED SOME FEATHERS

WHEN THEY FELT UNSTEADY

WHO STAYED TOO LONG

AND BECAME TEDIOUS

DIDN'T BELONG

WITH ANY OF US

SOME SEEM TO KNOW

WHEN IT'S TIME TO GO

THEY JUST MOVE ON

AND SEEM SO STRONG

ONE THING SEEMS TRUE

IT TAKES ALL KINDS

TO SORT THINGS THROUGH

AND MAKE UP OUR MINDS
