lyrics

I Say “No”

Some people say “Arise! Arise! Arise!
Live, friend, live!”
I say “die”.
I say “Shade yourself.”
I say “Shine what precious light you have into caves
and when it dies out stay.”
I say “Find life where you foolishly saw graves.”

Some people say “Try and try and try!
Fight and save yourself!”
I say “give”.
I say “Send them off.”
I say “Shed whatever husk if you are ripe
and if you’re not be fragrant then.”
I say “Give, no matter how it hurts, give in.”

Some people say “The sky, the sky, the sky!
Have you noticed it?”
I close my eyes.
I say nothing now.
There’s a ringing in my ears that’s faint and high
and when I listen close to it
it says “ ”
