The Glare - Green near the Pond Lyrics

Green near the pond
It was green near the pond
It was green above and below
All around was green
It sounded green
Although there were pikes, and ferns and
Pinecones and magazines
The leaves were dense
Chain link fence
Widescreen
I would stand beside the pond for days
I would stand beside the pond for years
I would hear the sun through the verdant haze
I would bury the week up to its ears
Is there anyone else beside the pond
No there is only me
Is there something down inside the pond
Let's not hang around to see
I went home went afternoon
I left the pond behind
It wasn't something I meant to do
It just slipped my mind
I believe the pond is still there
And I'm standing in the green
Stop by one night and check on me
And ask me where I've been
I've been at the pond
The green near the pond
