When you were young you were the king of carrot flowers
7 7 7 7 -7 -6 6 6 6 6 5 -5 6
And how you built a tower tumbling through the trees
6 6 6 6 -5 5 -4 -4 5 -4 -4 4 -5 -5
In holy rattlesnakes that fell all around your feet

And your mom would stick a fork right into daddy's shoulder

And dad would throw the garbage all across the floor
6 6 6 6 -5 5 -4 -4 5 -4 -4 4 -5 -5
As we would lay and learn what each other's bodies were for

And this is the room one afternoon I knew I could love you

And from above you how I sank into your soul
6 6 6 6 -5 5 -4 -4 5 -4 -4 4 -5 -5
Into that secret place where no one dares to go
