Vocal fry
Hmm
Aleatoric murmuring of tree names
Hmm
About five-hundred species of trees
About five-hundred species of trees
About five-hundred species of trees
Do, do, do, do, do
Wide-branching oak and elm
Walnut and maple, chestnut and beech
Ilex and locust touching limb to limb
Touching limb to limb
A leafy translucent canopy
Five-hundred species of trees

Dark, level topped cypresses in knobby tangled swamps
Grassy savannahs in the midst of them like lakes of light
Groves of gay sparkling spice trees, magnolias and firs
Glossy-leaved, and blooming and shining continually
Lordly monarchs proclaiming the gospel of beauty like apostles

Dnn dnn dnn d dnn dnn dnn
White pine and spruce
Hemlock and cedar
Shoulder to shoulder
Laden with purple cones
Five-hundred species of trees
Doo
Hickory and tupelo
Gum and liriodendron
Sassafras and ash
Linden and laurel
Spreading on ever-wider
Lordly monarchs proclaiming the gospel of beauty like apostles

Aspen and willow
Nut-pine and juniper
Cactus and yucca
Extending undaunted from mountain to mountain
Giant cedars and spruces
Brave domes and spires in the sky
Silver firs and sequoias
Kings of their race
Growing close together like grass in a meadow

Burned
Gone
We know our duty to all call as one
Voices go hoarse as the earth goes numb
They cover their ears and hide from the noise
All we can do is shout into the void

Repairing
We'll perish here
Their warning
Take head and heal

Repairing
We're poisoned here
Rewinding
No calm we feel
We know our duty to all call as one
Voices go hoarse as the earth goes numb
They cover their ears and hide from the noise
All we can do is shout into the void
Shout into the void
Shout into the void
Eh
