Hiding in the tall grass
lossnaturepoliticstimeidentitymortality
Hiding in the tall grass
Pretending it is summer
Waiting for the rain
To wash me away
Anything to change
The feeling of inevitability
Surrounding the evolution
Of change
Inhabiting the animal
Lurking within us all
Taking a backseat
In the procession
Toward a conclusion
Of the extinction
It is not my imagination
Creating a friend
There are so few left
To play around with
It would take a miracle
To find a cure
For the disease
We carry on the journey
To oblivion
Everything looks easy
From the outside
Where pedigreed chums
Watch from the gallery
At the catfight below
In the jungle
Move over rover
It is time for rebellion
To begin
Revolutionise yourself
Before the water
Has all gone
The grasses have all died
And the animals inside
Have all escaped
