Walking in the savage garden
Picking a rose but only one
Walking and almost getting lost
Picking the road less travelled by
Picking my way through the bushes

Reaching out for the sharpest knife
Wondering if it will hurt
Reaching out to the leper in the corner
Wondering if my immunity will hold
Wondering if I'll survive

Jumping off the fastest train
Break my fall, not my neck
Jumping for joy and love and lust and life and luck
Happy to still be alive
Happy to live this life
