Sticks in the mud

Thinking on what it feels like to be a "stick in the mud"

They always said we were sticks in the mud

pieces of tree that wouldn't budge

holding on to the world around us

sticks stuck to our own ideas

was it so bad to hold our ground

They always said we were sticks in the mud

opposition to the inevitable change

all we wanted is for things to stay the same

Im comfortable here in the ground

stuck but easily found

why can't things be like they always were

no need for me to move

I have everything I need

no need for anything new

I've always been a stick in the mud

they always said we were sticks in the mud

It's such a cool concept, and you develop it really well, but I feel like it could flow better. Could be the punctuation.

Yea, we often use the term sticks in the mud as a derogatory... I thought that it would be nice to hear the sticks point of view. lol
