[Chorus]
Steady, steady, hush, hush, look at me, look at me
Steady, steady, hush, hush, look at me, look at me
Steady, steady, hush, hush
[Vere 1]
Where shadows grow
Where mountains rise green and clouds surround, a lone tree stands
Gripping sword and axe, I climb up the hill
Rumble, rumble, rumble, rumble, I reach the mountain's peak
Whistling, a sharp, whirling tune
[Verse 2]
Rolling up my sleeves, vines tightly coiling
Push with all my strength, pull, struggle, yet it won' budge
Black sap sticky-sticky
White ants swarming-swarming
Tongue flicks, gulping it down
Time spirals, spinning, youth returns
Eyes open wide
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
Half a pig's tail, a kindling tuft of tangled hair
A land suspended in mid-air, a country without a floor
Crеatures neither wild nor wingеd live there
A two-headed horse, a deer, and a crow-tit with an ox tail
A noseless elephant
Flying fish and a two-tongued snake
Lost toys
Children's missing milk teeth
Broken doors, rusty hingers, rotting carts
Unspooled threads, horned geese
[Verse 4]
A god without feet, a god without words, all tangled, wrapped around the tree
Let go of that hand
The general unsheathes his sword, flings it wish a whoosh, the tree creaks and sways, branches blaze
Flames roar up, wing spreads the fire, Dhumy scorched
Wild hunting dogs leap, tree tilts, roots heave, dust clouds rise
A hole opens wide
[Bridge]
Scattered, spilling
Tumbling down, collapsing, crumbling
Dhumy entangled in heaps
[Chorus]
Steady, steady, hush, hush, look at me, look at me
Steady, steady, hush, hush, look at me, look at me
Steady, steady, hush, hush
Steady, steady, hush, hush, look at me, look at me
Steady, steady, hush, hush, look at me, look at me
Steady, steady, hush, hush
