The Melody of a Fallen Tree

Underneath the leaves where the blackbirds turn blue

If there's room for me

There's room for you

Place your ear to the ground, you hear a voice

It sings the song

The whole night long

I am the melody of the fallen tree

What comes between me

You and me

So sadly transient, you'd never guess

It could ever be

So easy to see

Across a frozen field you hear a call

With the urgency

Of the boiling sea

All your hopes and dreams they rise and fall

Secretly

A cacaphony

The love and brutality

They all turn on me

You hope to someday see

Patiently

So sadly obvious, you'd never guess

It could ever be

So hard to see
