The Forest Awakes

The forest awakes

A desert at dawn

A mountain at night

And the river moves on

The people awake

They're marching along

The streets are alive

With a terrible song

Forwards and backwards

In every direction

The abs' perpetual motion

The shifting of light on the banks of the river

I'm free but I'm keeping my clothes on

We're marching along

The street where you live

I'm calling your name

The song is a gift

The song is road

A road is a face

A face is a time

And a time is a place

A place of relief

and a time of confusion

A heart is a simple equation

With beautiful words and with beautiful people

A song is face is a mountain

A fruit that falls before it's grown

I heard a sound and a bird has flown

It breaks to pieces above the forest

A million particles born today

Out beyond the blue horizon

Air can not escape

Underneath the weeping willow

I can see your face

Free-form climbing all over me

Creatures grey an small

Doctors pulling them out of you

Hideous, virtuous, both of us

Calm in my kitchen

When it rains outside

Sweet inspiration

Sneaks up from behind

The forest is true

I know for a fact

That the bigger the front

Then the bigger the back

My heart beating still

Through the perilous night

The bombs burst in air

But my hair is alright

The shifting of light on the trees and the houses

I drown in an ocean of perfume

The strangeness of words

How the meaning keeps changing

But somehow the beauty will find you
