Just a single sound
I am the WOOSH of the trees
On a steady midnight breeze
Hear the THUD of my heartbeat
The CRACK of bones in my feet
I am very alive
I WHIMPER, BAWL, and SNIFF in tears
RATTLING beneath the weight of years
The SNORE and SHUSH of a tired mind
I'm the CLINK of treasure you find
I'm real through it all
We're the RUSH of waves from the tides
The RUMBLE of stone as earth divides
A world of HUMMING and DRUMMING
As the strings keep STRUMMING
I'm just a single sound
