Treeswell

from Azure Drift by Seismograph

lyrics

Ancient land sprawling, empty, clear
The distant cloud-bells had led me here
Far removed from the social realm
That endless noise that can overwhelm

Quiet and calm, only the wind
Dares to break the silence
I know why I’ve been brought here-
All I’m after is stillness

I reach a hill
I stare from it until
I glimpse the world’s design
I see all

On this hill rests a single tree
Its silent branches call out to me
I lie against it and rest my eyes
The stillness closes in from all sides

As the years pass the low sky
Begins to darken and weep
Now I awake to sinking streams
The rain begins to seep

As the treeswell begins
I hear a bell echo
Through clouded sky
Although it’s distant
I still feel the pull looming
I know it won’t be long now
