One thought on “(I wanna live on an) Abstract Plain”

  1. I’ve had it with this town
    I never saw those shifting skies
    I never saw the ground
    Or the sunset rise
    I want to live on an abstract plain

    I’m building a frame
    A place to put my ten-yard stare
    Thinking of that paint
    Painted in plein-air
    I want to live on an abstract plain

    I need a new adress
    I want some new terrain
    Is it North or South?
    I want to live on an abstract plain

    I could sit on the roof
    On top of that abstract house
    See my abstract view
    An abstract mouse
    I want to live on an abstract plain

    I need a new adress
    Tell me I’m not insane
    Is it up or down?
    I want to live on an abstract plain
