Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Zena, you've squared your toes

But your friendly nose hangs around

You're still a ballerina, everybody knows

But your feet are on the ground

[Chorus]

But as the years go by, and points comply with ever more relief

Then patterns in repeat can begin

[Verse 2]

To have your children, your flock of birds

Your branch among the wood

You'll try to tell them, but you're lost for words

'Cause it's so absurd, how good

[Chorus]

And as those years go by, they'll look upon you kindly like a friend

A pattern in repeat, and never ends

[Verse 3]

Pulled for meaning, I arched my back

And then, from the black, you were born

Forward leaning at first, abstract

You soon contract into form

[Chorus]

And now the time leaps by and starts to fly, and only then can I see

That we're patterns in repeat, and we'll always be
