Xeroscape

I hug the trees even thought they dont talk back to me
I kiss the lake even thought it wont make my heart quake
For your nothing that I havent felt before
I thought I could bring you alive
But it seems your too hard to reach, to reach
You pull it to the right and I bring

Your giving me nothing for all my giving
Your return nothing for all my gifting
Just take yourself from out of the circle
You and me are from from elemental

I roll on the grass even because I need to take this chance
Something living is more giving
That what you feel your giving me is enough
So wrong, how can you be so blind and wrong


Your giving me nothing for all my giving
Your return nothing for all my gifting
Just take yourself from out of the circle
You and me are from from elemental

Your giving me nothing for all my giving
Your return nothing for all my gifting
Just take yourself from out of the circle
I am going to be glad sitting alone at this table
