She only ever walks to count her steps
Eighteen strides and she stops to abide
By the law that she herself has set
That eighteen steps is one complete set
And before the next nine right and nine left
She looks up at the blue
And whispers to all of the above
Don't let me drown, don't breathe alone
No kicks no pangs no broken bones
Never let me sink, always feel at home
No sticks no shanks and no stones
Never leave it too late, always enjoy the taste
Of the great grey world of hearts
As all dogs everywhere bark
It's worth knowing
Like all good fruit the balance of life is in the ripe and ruin

Don't let me drown, don't breathe alone
No kicks no pangs no broken bones
Never let me sink, always feel at home

Like all good fruit the balance of life is in the ripe and ruin
