lyrics

The speechless trees reach slowly up
to greet the sun and eat it up
with each green leaf

The quick feet spiders weave their screens
to retrieve victims from the breeze
and pluck their wings

And the earth doesn't scream
The earth doesn't sing
It only breathes

When deer detect danger
they dart like unguarded major league athletes
With wild dogs descending
powered by hungry stalwart will

Geese know it's time to leave and so they leave
The trees will fall asleep and lose their leaves
Geese know it's time to leave and so they leave
The trees will fall asleep and lose their leaves

You've got to leave
right now

You eat the meat of lofty dreams
but turn your teeth from you need

Discarding the days, discarding the days
Wasting the weeks, wasting the weeks
You know what you need, you know what you need
You've got to leave, you've got to leave
