New Trees

The moonlight will guide me
I've guaranteed myself this freedom
It will touch the ground as I run
And I will run no more
When the moonbeams find me
Death will become all life
In the darkness of death

I am created and I need not love
I push everything away
I have screamed in the dreams of every mountain
"Hold me down!"
I have been the mist that keeps the horizon in place
Holding everything down

I push everything away
And what when the moonlight finds me?
I'm certain the pines will still grow
From the footsteps and the ashes
Of all culture
New trees and new moonlight
New trees for the first bolt of lightning
I have been the foundation
And I have been the remains
I push everything away
