lyrics
Concrete to grass
I’m light on my heels
Jumped over the fence
Ran free in the fields
The flower I picked
Was a thistle that pricked
Said please leave me be
I’m not ready to leave
The last legs of summer
Bring the first leaves of fall
By nature I’m nurtured
In its grandeur made small
I found a weeping willow
Peeking out through its tears
I ran through the meadow
Sighed, for you weren’t near
I made friends with the livestock
Maybe weeks from the plate
Unknowing, they graze
So soon they’ll be slain
Like the farmer’s scythe
That takes what it takes
You see, the peace comes to visit
But never to stay
I drank from your cup
I ate from your plate
But the food never fills
The vessel still breaks
Still, I marvel at mercy
Of being offered a taste
Or a glimpse at the pasture
Fore night took it away
supported by 6 fans who also own “The Vessel Breaks”
I got to listen to some of these songs live during Origami Angel's tour in 2022, which was a really cool experience. I loved them enough to buy a CD!!! KZDEX
