lyrics

It's a laborious drudgery
To make myself understood by them
When understanding's so easy
And natural on the branch of our elm.

And it is such an annoying task
To hide weaknesses, fears and shames, to wear a mask,
When I can so simply be true,
Tell and show all of me to you
(Like silence)

What a gift, this peace I find here
A shelter from despair and fear
Living and growing like our tree
The release a true love can be


And how deeply exhausting it was
To stay wary of getting invaded, judged or crushed,
And how perpetually stifling it was
To feel so lonely in the middle of a crowd.

How could I bear the oppressive tie
Of conventions, proper procedures and decorous lies
When our world together's a sight
So free and borderless and wide ?
(And silent)

What a gift, this peace I find here
A shelter from despair and fear
Living and growing like our tree :
The release a true love can be.
