Birnam

Evergreen, hear their song
Root and branch, grow them strong
Shadows fall, see them long
Wise man, listen to the forest song
Grow them broad, grow them long
Grow them tall, grow them strong
Shadows fall, see them long
Wise man, listen to the forest song
Leaves of green and roots of men
Let the forest breathe again
From birnam wood to dunsinane
Let the forest walk again
Who's lighting the fires that burn them down?...
Grow them broad, grow them long
Grow them tall, grow them strong
Shadows fall, see them long
Wise man, listen to the forest song
At the hand of man, see them burn
Who's lighting the fires that burn?
Life blood never return
Who's lighting the fires that burn?
At the hand of man, see them fall
Who's lighting the fires that burn?
Wise man, listen to the forest call
Why don't you listen to the forest call?
The fires that burn them down
Leaves of green and roots of men
Let the forest breathe again
From birnam wood to dunsinane
Let the forest walk again
Who's fighting the fires that burn?
Steel wheels move, you can feel them turn
Ripped from the earth, your roots will tear
The sound of rending flesh fills the air
In fire and searing heat, your body's burned
Consumed in flames, your ashes spurned
The wind blows, the rain falls, no time to pause
A desert lies where your life once was
You stood by and waited for your turn so now
Who's lighting the fires that burn?
You stood by and waited for your turn so now
Who's lighting the fires that burn them down?
You stood by and waited for your turn so now
Who's lighting the fires that burn?
You stood by and waited for your turn
The fires that burn
At the hand of man, see them burn
Who's lighting the fires that burn?
Life blood never return
Who's lighting the fires that burn?
At the hand of man, see them fall
Who's lighting the fires that burn?
Wise man, listen to the forest call
Leaves of green and roots of men
Let the forest breathe again
From birnam wood to dunsinane
Let the forest walk again
