Lions |
| Look at these trees |
| Look at this grass |
| Look at those clouds |
| Look at them now |
| And look at them now |
| Now, look at them now, look at them now |
| Take a closer look |
| Take a closer look |
| Study the raindrops on the leaves |
| Study the raindrops on the leaves |
| Study the ants on the ground |
| I am, all over the place |
| Study the ground, the brown, porous topsoil |
| I am, out of place |
| Its softness, the mushrooms |
| I am, elsewhere |
| And the strange blue flowers that grow near them |
| Study this and ask yourself: «Where is God?» |
| Oscillating |
| Back and forth and round and up |
| Avoiding the loops of the mind |
| This place doesn’t know |
| Look at me |
| This place doesn’t care |
| I feel tender in the elsewhere |
| About the holy scriptures or how to pronounce, and live by, the ecclesiastical |
| In the dark, a sudden empathy |
| This is a no-man's land |
| I am, threatening to some |
| This is a no-God's land |
| Like an empty body |
| Look at those trees again |
| Must be explained |
| Look at the bark |
| But not explored |
| Look at their height |
| Are they not darker than the trees you know? |
| I am, making room for tenderness |
| Are they not smaller? |
| TMI, bb, TMI, baby |
| Listen to the wind and the rattling leaves |
| Making room for lovers |
| It’s whispering a pagan psalm |
| Back and forth and round and up |
| Avoiding the loops of the mind, mind |
| Back and forth and round and up |
| Avoiding the loops of the mind, mind |
| To become the untamed, smooth and muscular |
| Like lions of the mind, mind |
| I am, elsewhere |
| I am, all over the place |
| Making room for lovers |
