We are all statues caught in the rain
With bigger fish to fry
We converse about the glitter in our eyes
Is it joy or is it pain?

We are all just dancing shadows
Flitting through the summer grass
You never had the thought to ask
And now you'll never know

Strung out and you never show it
You were hung like a scapegoat

I am talking to your reflection
For some deeper conversation
Without reaching for murder
Or another cup of coffee

Flying from one hole to the next
You were hung out like a scapegoat

Fly away summer child
Where the winter's warmth
Isn't bleeding you dry
Runnels in the sand
And that pain in your eye.
