Floater in a wind stream,
Trapped, slapped, mapped and told as a dream

Merchants sold a lost extreme
Corrupted, strapped and fueled by greed

Fluttered sounds of wings
Splattered grounds of coffee strings

Black or sweetened hot on the tongue
Cold, beaten, eagles send to die their young

Crack my back please make me feel best
Bold and floating on the wind of the west
Down the street you can hear her scream youre a disgrace
As she slams the door in his drunken face
And now he stands outside
And all the neighbours start to gossip and drool
He cries oh, girl you must be mad,
What happened to the sweet love you and me had?
Against the door he leans and starts a scene,
And his tears fall and burn the garden green
