I want to die with the snow jump down from the cloud I wish God would remove my freckles I want a dog and a rubber dog mat I want to become a dog and lie with the dog on the rug people still don't know how to love people still don't know how to live

every second i look in the mirror and see god every second in the sky I see god snowflakes flying in the air my freckles have disappeared in the mirror image

Free bird flies between the bells their sound devours and sound creates its own
