lyrics

let me grow straight and tall
like a tree
or let me grow crooked
if that’s the shape I must be
just don’t let me grow false
let me put down roots
I give you this so you can feel less alone
If you give me something too
well then magically
we actually have all we need

where the tame things go I can be unbound
let knots become rope become hair
put that steal back in the ground

got all the 5 boroughs’ mail by mistake
out of all the paper built a cozy chateau
gave out coupons to everyone we know

stain the paper, doesn’t matter how
buy the cherry orchard
stumble chainsaws around
find emancipation and other assholes own the goddamn ground

where the tame things go I can be unbound
let knots become rope become hair
put that steal back in the ground
