Jusiamere Farm - Dead Meadow

If I was but a cow

That you milked before dawn

What would you say

When you came and all my milk was gone

If I was but wolf

With teeth that caught the light

I’d open wide like the starry sky

As I came down to strike

Thinking ‘bout a thought to cut the net that I’m caught in

I saw myself slip into a thought that I’m not in

If all I was was time

Like the howl of a hound in your mind

Would every second that passes you by

Send a shiver down your spine

Thinking ‘bout a thought to cut the net that I’m caught in

I saw myself slip into a thought that I’m not in

But if I was what I am

Nothing less than man

I realize a reason

Is not because I can
