theatrical s**t

A Poem by cara

when you're in the city
you don't get involved
when you're in the country
what else is there for you to do

and i've seen what it does to people
when the red brick crushes your young soul
and i've seen what it does to people
when the tractor reverses
and forward it never goes

nowhere is good
so take me to nowhere
don't let me be part of the country
nowhere is good
just pockets places
don't let me be part of the country

if you reject
your place in the world
you are destined to repeat the sewing pattern
so i will admit
on the ground, submit
still from the country 
i have grown

but from a high window, the stones thrown
i never did ayahuasca in Spain
a party in Rio didn't fix my pain

and i've seen what it does to people
when the red brick crushes your young soul
but you cant be bad sir
you were just a child
no, you're not so bad
cuz you're not so country
