When the last petal falls,
I'll search for Spring no more.
I've burned with all the rest,
standing at your door...
Open my chest,
pour in my veins,
Dissolve this flesh!
my words are to lame.
These songs make me drunk...
Inside a seed is a garden,
a symphony in one note,
and so I'll sing when the wind blows through,
and my song turns to sky...
Empty without you,
Full within you,
Every word sung about you,
Has fallen so short.
These songs make me drunk.
Where sound sits and waits.
And light freezes in time.
In the Stillness of all things,
there...there's the Craft-man's sign.
In the silence of it all,
(try not to weep)
(any motion is a trick)
(...its best not to speak.)
These songs make me drunk.
