lyrics

A tree falls down
in clouds of mud & dust
& no-one's around.
Does it make a sound?
Sure it's heavy, sure it's lumber,
sure it's bark & it's wood,
but is it any good
if no one hears it?
Is it humbled in obscurity
to take no water?
Does it lay right down
without making a sound?

But maybe, come on...

Another gig to sew
these solar seeds
but nobody showed.
Sometimes it grows depressing.
The flag I fly
says, "DIY or die"
but I'm too tired to try.
Somebody hold my head up.
Nameless faces
how they turn their heads in unison.
Such plain indifference.
Should I lay right down
without making a sound?

But maybe, come on...

In time, the botonists
will come to count the rings
around my trunk.
I can almost hear them saying,
"The dream was dumb,
they were all just in it
for the money & drugs.
Too bad no one was paying."
I hear nothing,
not a chord that rings
or drum that pounds.
Just dusty records
that spin 'round & 'round
without making a sound.

But maybe, come on...
