Current song lyrics
What says the tree to his friends the rocks?<br />When he lives and breathes and they sit and mock<br />And he grows strong for centuries long<br />But finally dies and begins to rot<br /><br />'We will last intact this way!<br />And you my friend will soon decay'<br />'But i can breathe - am commensal;<br />the shade, the fruits, the nests on bough<br />And if, with this, my time finite<br />I'm glad to have spent it doing right'<br />But rocks prefer to simply sit<br />To win none, lose none, just exist<br /><br />But nary should an ocean rise,<br />They'd become sand and dissapear with the tides<br />When trees ignite a cyclical life<br />From plant to animal to Earth and back;<br />Whom, even when their roots are plowed<br />Have left exponential impact<br /><br />Steel, concrete, technology (etc)<br />May stand intact for centuries<br />I say with actions...<br />But faced with wind, flood or quake <br />Like toys will crumble, bend and break<br />... what you do with words<br /><br />And so the greedy human kind<br />To conquer trees tall, mountains high<br />Erects gigantic splinters of steel <br />That shame forests, make mountains kneel<br /><br />And progress spreads like moss on stone<br />Evolution dictates that men are prone<br />To outdo those that came before<br />'You see? We'll last forever more!'<br /><br />We improve what nature made<br />We'll challenge mountains, transplant lakes<br />There is no confirmed master plan<br />We do it just because we can<br /><br />But foolish is the one who<br />Complacently thinks himself King<br />Because when time erodes the past<br />What remains are nature's things<br />Quite Shakespearean duals<br />Those between parent and offspring are!<br />As Chronos devours his Son<br />Gaia to Mankind so starts<br /><br />Steel, concrete, technology (etc)<br />May stand intact for centuries<br />I say with actions...<br />But faced with wind, flood or quake <br />Like toys will crumble, bend and break<br />... what you do with words<br /><br />We won't outlive our generation,<br />But our impact surely will<br />This - the Rocks' humilitation<br />When they witness we are still<br />Alive in what we've left for others<br />Like Nature gives, so selflessly<br />So pay respect to our true Mother<br />And take your rank amongst the trees
