lirik lagu tree of rhyme – david massengill
[verse 1]
i took a tree into the town
to see if it would grow
not knowing i was affixed
to the fate of the seed i’d sown
my roots are solid underground
fed by the warm spring rain
where thunder’s fierce and fickle winds
find compromise insane
[chorus]
i seek refuge in this tree of rhyme
into its arms i climb
frightened by the terror of the scythe
there will be peace with the wind and rain
the roundness of the earth and flame
this tree is more constant than i
this tree is more constant than i
[verse 2]
my tree has flourished the same as i
though invisible at times
beneath the rubble of vacant eyes
the seed divides and climbs
as if part of a forgotten age
when business was a vice
and virtue was merely picking fruit
in some patient paradise
[chorus]
i seek refuge in this tree of rhyme
into its arms i climb
frightened by the terror of the scythe
there will be peace with the wind and rain
the roundness of the earth and flame
this tree is more constant than i
this tree is more constant than i
[verse 3]
i pity those without a tree
as birth has doomed no one
for bricks are merely mud and straw
c*n*ls are just rivers won
for nature schemes in cracks and seams
waiting for a time to bloom
even down in that soot gray town
in some forgotten room
[chorus]
i seek refuge in this tree of rhyme
into its arms i climb
frightened by the terror of the scythe
there will be peace with the wind and rain
the roundness of the earth and flame
this tree is more constant than i
this tree is more constant than i
