Rabbits

Ivy growing on my gates
Where the murmur emanates
Like a walk into a big parade
Smothered by the escapades
Early May we heard that tune
And it echoed down the avenue
And the street felt empty most of June
Softened faces filtered through
The fear of the distance to the floor
The warmth of a place that you adore
So what are we breathing faster for?
Tell me why, oh why do we evoke this creature fear
‘Cause we’re all just rabbits in the headlights here
Come on wash away that frightened voice that creeps into your ear
Because we’re all just rabbits in the headlights here
Throw my mind up to the wind
Everyone’s the same within
‘Cause the smallest thing can break the skin
Crack along our fingerprints
The drop of a weight down to the floor
Release all the pressure on your jaw
So swim, come and meet me by the shore
Tell me why, oh why do we evoke this creature fear
‘Cause we’re all just rabbits in the headlights here
Come on wash away that frightened voice that creeps into your ear
Because we’re all just rabbits in the headlights here
Tell me why, oh why do we evoke this creature fear
‘Cause we’re all just rabbits in the headlights here
Come on wash away that frightened voice that creeps into your ear
Because we’re all just rabbits in the headlights here
Tell me why, oh why do we evoke this creature fear
‘Cause we’re all just rabbits in the headlights here
