I remember the first time someone looked at me

And said words they didn't mean

And you said chanel that 

Take every stick and stone 

And become a forest

But forests are all alone

And I forgot it

I'm an oak in such decrepit land

Scheming and scrounging for a plan

Much to headstrong to ask for a hand

But plants have wisdom so there never alone 

I'm a person not the badlands

With their thoughts and their sands 

I wanted to be a river or a spring

Gushing and freely flowing

With pretty poetic ramblings

Before you turned me into this thing

I only exist to write

Fight or flight 

Do you only want me so I can sing?

Because now I'm a songbird out of spite

I'm perched atop the trees 

Above you 

but always you I'm trying to please

A songbird out of spite

Singing till I can't breathe
