A Fruitless Year
When the rain floods the fields and the whole crop is gone
It's starting to feel like an old country song
Don't just rest in regret
Put your best dress shoes on and play in the mud
Then run for your life like a good little boy
'Cause today you are young
If you just make the choice to be free from the weather
And never give up on your toys
It's a lie that they feed you
And prove you must follow
The current events of today and tomorrow
When deep in your throat you still know it is hollow
The whole world is just one more pill you must swallow
And its side effect list consists of sad sex and sorrow
It's an unhealthy mixture
A weight you can't wallow away from your tears
Or the years that just follow
