[00:27.19]The leafless tree looked like a brain
[00:32.59]The birds within were all the thoughts and desires within me
[00:44.99]Hoppin' around from branch to branch,
[00:50.54]or snug in their nests listenin' in
[00:54.17]
[01:03.51]An eagle came over the horizon
[01:08.61]and shook the branches with its sight
[01:12.54]The softer thoughts: starlings, finches, and wrens
[01:17.02]The softer thoughts, they all took flight
[01:20.52]
[01:30.53]The eagle looked clear through the brain tree,
[01:34.79]emptying thoughts saved for me
[01:39.17]Maybe I'll make this one my home,
[01:43.12]consolidate the nests of the tiny
[01:47.67]Raise a family of might like me
[01:52.42]
[02:01.54]Then something struck him, wings of bone
[02:05.59]Sweet desires and soft thoughts were all gone
[02:14.50]The eagle shrieked, "I'm alone"
[02:18.21]
[02:26.58]Well it was time to flee the tree
[02:31.71]The eagle snuck up on the wind one talon at a time
[02:49.24]Being sky king of the sky, what did he have to fear
[02:58.54]All thoughts are prey to some beast
[03:02.95]All thoughts are prey to some beast
[03:11.97]All thoughts are prey to some beast
[03:16.13]All thoughts are prey to some beast
[03:20.73]All thoughts are prey to some beast
[03:24.93]
[03:53.70]Sweet desire and soft thoughts, return to me
[04:04.26]Sweet desire and soft thoughts, return to me
[04:22.03]
