Rabbit

Old man
I hear they call you “rabbit”
Hopping town to town
And jumping on the trains
Hey, rabbit
Can that train take me home, too?
‘Cause I know I need to
And I can’t see how
I got so lost
Looking in that river full of rain
Watched it shadowbox its banks
And I missed my boat
Hey rabbit, hey rabbit
Can you read the stars?
Hey, rabbit
Do you have a place to go home to?
Think they’d let you if you tried to?
I’m scared to look a fool
Old man
You make me feel so young
In the way I’m not proud of
I’ve known shame enough
Hey rabbit, hey rabbit
Can you read the stars?
I get distracted
Sleeping in my coat again
I’m too lost
I see ghosts
And I’ve had too much of this
And I need a rest
Hey, rabbit
I can’t remember why I ran
Or how I got so lost
Or how to get back home now
Can you read the stars?
