Flare

It was a troubled time in my early life
In a field outside of town
Near the water tower, graves and forest
False ends all around

I’d curl up tight to the roots at night
Under the old oak, strong and wise
Face another night to test my fight
Fire burning in my eyes

The days were tangled in the hunt
The sunsets going down
The whole world stops in vacant lots
A cycle to which I am bound

I thought my blood would notice
But they just weren’t around
I remember that night near the graves and forest
The rain kept coming down

It was a lonely night in the quiet rain
I couldn’t hear a sound
Force my soul to surrender
Rise and crawled into town

I thought my blood would notice
But they just weren’t around
Grandmother’s eyes had sighted me
She turned away and let me down

Broken, poor and on the edge
Nothing there was good
I could feel my heartbeat pulsing
In the empty field I stood

I thought my blood would notice
But they just weren’t around
I remember that night near the graves and forest
The rain kept coming down
