It catches, but it catches
like a bird taking flight freezes in its place
It petrifies, it petrifies
and carves my heartwood hollow from the inside
Show me the fury of a dammed stream
Tao blind faith in my heart
Give me the strength of a wounded bear, oh my mighty bird
Teach me the humility of an old maple
And shine a light in my eyes
Give me something pure, something to believe in
It fades my heart tree leaves
and rips them off one by one
It subdues, it subdues me
slowly absorbs strength and ages me before its time
