I was kickin rocks down the street And I was making love to my defeat When someone tells you to be at peace Don't it make you kinda want to scream? Cause you can't carry the dead in the branches of your tree Failed to lotus but I'm back on my knees Watching the clouds passing by the immovable beast So I buried them neath the clay And said a prayer for their release So light upon my feet As the heaven's shook the mountains and the mountains shook the seas And my heart strings danced me like a marionette and my dreams woke free from sleep Failed to lotus but I'm back on my knees Watching the clouds passing by the immovable beast There's honey in the trees And it's dripping down on me There's light upon the breeze And it's teaching me how to sing In a voice so shrill like a crow with no beak Failed to lotus but I'm back on my knees Watching the clouds passing by the immovable beast The Towhees chirp so sweet As their wings grace the leaves Their song fills the air And every note kisses me Allowing the birth of the fool Erupting in wisdom that cannot speak
