Lyrics
Marching Band
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
One dark day the trees began a trumpet sound, trumpet sound,
We sat listening patiently
The sky was near
And I felt a trembling motion
We ran out to see the future
From the ground from the ground
From the ground from the ground
People died and people risen everywhere
We held hands and made a circle quietly from the ground,
quietly from the ground
We returned and set the table by the door
