The Last Homegrown Lost Boy (Humpback Oak, 'SideASideB')
Hiding in your recess
Solving puzzles on a train
Time to beat the traffic
Time to catch your plane
But you're late

Like you care
Save me from your glare
Erase me with your flare for the ordinary
Can you teach me how to deal with shock?
How to beat the clock?
Can you talk a bit to me?

Sliding down like dart
Crying like a boy scout who's lost his cap
Rearrange me all over again
And put me on my plane

I end a hand, pick me up again
Arrange me with your plan for the ordinary
Nice and calm
Calm and still
Still and nice
Can you talk a bit to me?

I will sit in my chair and wait
But there's nothing stirring at my feet
I will sleep like a child tired and weak
Still I'm waiting
Still there's nothing coming to me

Sell your shock and teach me how to deal
Please me with your mockery
Your drowning sea
Your boiling game of loneliness
Am I a part of your scheme?
Can you talk a bit to me?
