[length: 03:40]
[00:31.56]I cannot reconcile myself to this—
[00:34.48]I wish I could!
[00:41.16]I cannot live the life I ought to live—
[00:44.29]I know I should!
[00:49.57]I cannot bring myself to pray,
[00:54.15]Except to wish these words away
[01:02.08]They echo round my head
[01:10.74]But soon they will escape
[01:17.62]Across the bleak landscape
[01:27.42]There is a tree that grows out of this earth
[01:31.38]It stands alone
[01:38.17]There is a wind that shaped it from its birth
[01:41.84]By whom the seed was sown
[01:47.56]I cannot bring myself to sing
[01:50.95]It is a wild, untethered thing
[01:59.64]That echoes round my head
[02:06.30]But soon it will escape
[02:17.66]Across the bleak landscape
[02:25.61]I cannot bring myself to… speak
[02:34.57]Except to wish myself asleep
[02:40.63]Every word unuttered
[02:47.08]Only serves to clutter up my head
[02:52.01]When I go to bed
[02:58.54]I dream that
[03:03.52]Soon I will escape
[03:09.61]Across the bleak landscape
[03:15.46]And soon we shall escape
[03:21.66]Across our very own bleak landscape
[03:34.85]
