Tree
A melody after the sweeping violins and flutes in the 'Organ' Symphony no. 3 by Camille Saint-Saƫns.
- Take a look at yourself in the mirror:
- You can see that your eye has an error.
- There 's light coming out of it.
- Say, are you proud of it?
- Now admit vanity's splendour.
-
- You don't have the questions and answers.
- Yeah, you sing but you don't know the dancers.
- You used to be growing,
- but now you are glowing.
- You 're going to lift all your anchors.
-
- You don't really ask for a reason.
- You only light up, it 's the season.
- I do beg your pardon
- but what is this stardom?
- You are gonna live in a treason.
-
- Now see in your eye and you 'll find it:
- I 'm secretly circling behind it.
- This centre of riddles,
- this heat in the middle 's
- just fiddling of flames, never mind it.
-
- The name of the game is still standing.
- You might win the match but you 're bending.
- Where is your beating heart,
- when shall we meet?
- Will you see through your eye in the ending?
-
- The furious wind is still blowing.
- The matter is fearfully flowing.
- This feeling is right
- and the reason is light.
- You might just arrive where you 're going.
-
- To turn on a higher desire,
- to yearn for the sky and admire
- this tree in the wood
- that I once understood -
- o, how could I just put it on fire?
1995.
