Earthworm

I've got my fingers in the earth and an earthworm in my sights I hope I don't wake up to new bug bites I act braver than I am and my fears live under rocks But we turned them over one by one until my only fear was the setting sun I am overexposed but I don't want to go home I want this summer to last forever and to never put on another sweater Nature is more than just a luxury to me it's a space to build a home Between the soft grass and cotton candy sunsets And when night falls I ride my bike faster than I should And my lights scare the neighbourhood skunks But where's the fun in life without a little late night funk? I am overexposed and I don't want to go home I want this summer to last forever and to never put on another sweater I've got my head up in the clouds and tomorrow in my sights And if it rains again, this time I won't mind
