There's a little flower growing near your home
But it's not going to grow there no more
Because you plucked from the place where it stood
So you put it in a vase on your shelf
Fill with water just to show how you feel
And you watch it as the leaves turn to gray
One by one all the petals drop and fall
Then you close them in a book on a page
Pieces melt, and they all melt away
And it fades away
As it strains toward the light
From it's place on the shelf
Close the blinds, shade the light
There's a little girl playing by the gate
People smile, and touch her pretty hair
They'll preserve her fragile beauty in a frame
So tell her of a place big and wide
Magic things, wondrous things she can know
And lead her by the hand to the door
And they'll put her deep inside of a cage
Walls of concrete, and bars made of bone
Pretty soon walls and chairs will be her home
And she fades away
As she strains toward the light
Come inside, take your place
Turn your head, shade your eyes
There's a little girl growing near your home
Pluck a flower for her hair, and she knows

Written by Michael on 2008-04-01 08:56:15What is your message? What are you trying to tell us? Something about The Truth? Or are you just scattering notes like a shot gun? Do you want to draw us in and show us Life? Or are you falling into dust before our eyes? Are you leading us to the road of redemption, or is your way so wide that even you don't know the way? {play on Pied Piper, the blind lead the blind. We look for The Light, are you what we'll find? Play on Pied Piper. let your hearts bleed, but know you'll be judged for the way that you lead.
