SILKWORMS
I never see you come back up
You're always swirling down, down
I find this most difficult to understand
When all you do is start from the top and climb down
You've seen the top and decided that it just isn't for you
You're never afraid when your frail thread breaks
Because you are on your way to the bottom anyway--
Just so that you may enjoy life
You'd rather do it in your own sweet time
But when it comes right down to it
It really doesn't matter
You're always swirling down, down
I find this most difficult to understand
When all you do is start from the top and climb down
You've seen the top and decided that it just isn't for you
You're never afraid when your frail thread breaks
Because you are on your way to the bottom anyway--
Just so that you may enjoy life
You'd rather do it in your own sweet time
But when it comes right down to it
It really doesn't matter
