lyrics

If there's a sun,
I'm in the shade
If you've a question,
I'll be the Blade that cuts your Answers from the tree

It wasn't me
instilling this need
Me, i've got to be Free
To feed this Curiosity that won't quit
scratching my knees

I tried to give myself more sunlight
But the outside world just didn't feel right.
But I'll never be ashamed
When I remember our jungle games--
How our talking could ventilate
in the cold, cold shimmering shade
And the watery lemonade--
Both our futures had taken the blade.
Don't you wish that you would've stayed?
Things will never be the same...
