Demo version

lyrics

I got a day older today
I'm an auburn patchwork skunk
Neither woman nor man
Somewhere in between, leave me be

(chorus)
Leave me be
When I'm alone
Find me water
When rocks are my home
California, give me eyes
Lift me up with your basket of sky

Wrestled my alligator today
I'm a torn-up jackalope hide
My scapula's stiff
I've got bruises and grit
And I can't help but try try try

Chorus

There is not a sole right
But a wrong
And yet, sunshine all the day long
Somewhere someone welcomes me
Why can't it be?

Maybe wristwatches turn with disdain
At my trippin'-up door-slammin' ways
Only old seeks in young
What's been lost to the tongue
Leave me be

Chorus
