my girl is a beautiful girl she’s a complex girl she’s everything good in the world she’s a feral girl with dirt on her feet and twigs in her hair she doesn’t really care yeah she’s got claws but not for fighting she can climb a tree any height and she can sing and dance and paint and sail yeah i feel her heart beating out of her chest she’s causing a tsunami in my blood stream but its making me feel like im at my best look look, im tapping my feet to the words she speaks she’s speaking earth fire and water a dedicated lover , adorable daughter, sister and a friend sometimes in the night when i fall asleep i think she gets up and goes rambling deep in the forest in her bare feet running with the wild dear, fairies ,round ancient roots while eating berries and she’s back for breakfast unbeknownst to me as if its been a wild nights dreamin i give her a stare she doesn’t know i see the twigs in her hair anyway, me and the feral girl decide to steal an old boat and row row row way way out until we couldn’t see belfast anymore were just drifting me and the feral girl got lost at sea and we’re just drift but we’re happy we got everything we need we got fish and rainwater sun, moon and each other where will the current take us? does god even know? maybe he’l be busy and he’l get his ma mother nature to take control theres a storm coming we can see it on the horizon we’re gonna baton the hatches and meditate on surviving and so you barrel roll from side to side life doesn’t let up your born you die and it ain’t all smooth sailin it aint all smooth sailing but i can tell ya a companion to help you with the ropes in a storm is always good a companion to help you with the ropes in a storm is always good me and the feral girl adrift tonight all we see is sea but thats alright me and the feral girl adrift tonight we love like mariana till we die me and the feral girl adrift tonight we love like mariana till we die

Today is a place I didn't mean to end up thumbing a lift in the dark and I cant see the way but for some reason im ok without knowing where im going tonight for some reason this poor weather cycle has frozen her wings in depths of the winter she'll find warmth if she sings its hard to stay positive when I see her this way but this pain it moves in centuries, sometimes seconds, sometimes days back in this dream I will wait for you in the meadow of the unknown her arms open wide mother nature sings it is good to be alive if your in a place you didn't mean to end up throw away your clock and relish in the trees cover your eyes to heighten all scenes and then you'll hear her sing
