Beat A Drum (Dalkey Demo)

The sun reflected in The back of my eye I knocked my head against the sky The dragonflies are busy buzzing me A seahorse as if we were in the sea Half way from coal Half way from diamond My fall knocked a mean chip out of me Gathering as far as I can reach Perched up on a precipice And this is what I've seen This is all I want It's all I need This is all I am This is all I want It's all I need A bluejay hectors from the felled Catalpa tree Doctorate in science and a theologians dream The dragonflies are trying to lecture me The seahorses as if we were in the sea But this is all I want It's all I need This is all I am It's everything This is all I want It's all I need Beat a drum for me Like a butterfly wing Tropical storm across the ocean But don't explain I'm sure I'll want to know Don't forget we're just half way from coal This is all I want It's all I need This is all I am It's everything This is all I want It's all I need
