you burned down the orphanage   and poisoned your mother   and the flames they were seen   for miles and miles      the soles of your shoes   would not carry you forward   so you stood and stared   you stood and smiled      you thought about all    that had troubled you lately    as it rose as a smoke    from burning ground       you spoke through your teeth    as you turned to walk from it    "dear god help me,    how I miss it all now!"       and where will I find anything    that will bind me to all that i knew    until I find out I will bury my heart    'neath the dirt and the soil and the roots       so you buried your heart    'neath the dirt and the roots    you ran so fast    you ran so far       you turned to see birds peck the meat from the soil    they flew so fast    and they flew so far       you thought about all    that had troubled you lately    as it rose as smoke    from burning ground       you spoke through your teeth    as you turned to walk from it    "dear god help me,    how i miss it all now!"       and where will I find anything    that will bind me to all that i knew    until I find out I will bury my heart    'neath the dirt    and the soil and the roots
