A secret language we don't understand

Gnarled old oak tree sinking in the sand

A secret language we don't understand

Gnarled old oak tree sinking in the sand

Quicksands of ever-sinking hearts

Wary I go

Wary gnarl

Wary I go

We are

Sinking shadows

Sinking and

Retching rainbows

Into the sand

A hidden gesture we never understand

Spin the words down under signals of resentment

A hidden gesture we never understand

Spin the words down under signals of resentment

Quicksands of ever-sinking hearts

Wary I go

Wary gnarl

Wary I go

We are

Sinking shadows

Sinking and

Retching rainbows

Into the sand
