Little Rabbit wakes to a different life. Repeating a familiar story her memories are largely swept behind her for simple delights and fears—a patch of strawberries, a hunter in the brush. She settles into their familiar warmth and sleeps soundly, oblivious to the past and future following like shadows..
lyrics
These days I wake up early and I go to bed on time
And when I see my mother I run up to her side
I was wrong.
I always return.
I woke up like a newborn with old songs in my head
Banished to the fields again, the innocent's dread
Late patch of summer strawberries
My mind is a smooth and seamless wall without a hold to climb or crawl
I blend into the scenery, I hide from you,
Through the ages, tucked in time
I don't mind
The future
Sleeps close to me
Do you want to know where we have been, the severed paths they mend their threads
We swept it all behind us by the end of the day
So we could sleep and not worry
About what's followed us here
Though our racing hearts only kept us warmer
And there's the fiercest sorrow in letting go
Even if you don't know
But I let go into that warmth
