Chainsaw

I’m supposed to be a wise old tree
But I haven’t slept for years
A noise has kept me awake
And it’s getting closer and closer,

Deadlier and hungrier,
It’s tearing down all my siblings,
One by one
And now I’m angry

Don’t leave your tools lying around
Human! Money has grabbed a chainsaw
And it’s tearing down your own lungs
Why do you despise life so much?

You plant your roots in the concrete
You feed your body with empty food
Filling the void with virtual connections
No wonder you’re so hungry

But still, don’t leave your tools lying around
Human! Money has grabbed a chainsaw
And it’s tearing down your own lungs
Do you despise life so much?

The chainsaw is getting closer
I can feel the tickling touch of my passengers,
All scurrying away… to another place bound to be blown away
I hate to say it but I need your help human
It’s time you stopped the destruction

Don’t leave your tools lying around
Human! Money has grabbed a chainsaw
And it’s tearing down your own lungs
No, I can’t believe you despise life so much

Come walk in my forest, come closer
Open your lungs to life, get drunk on the smell of my sap
Connect to the thousands of threads of my roots
And feed on the coarsness of my bark

This is life human,
Don’t let the chainsaw end it.
