Put me out to Pasture
Can’t keep me company
I just can’t follow you at all
What warmth can come from a paper cup?
Collect the catastrophes, like action figures
Playing cards of fate
Beauty in the making
Courage cry out, cast a spell
Dance across the screen
Cursive to calligraphy
What do you expect from me?
Costs from changing your mind
How cliché that these sheep would never follow me
Or find my parents funny
