[Verse 1]
Snow cuts loose from the frozen
Until it joins with the African sea
In moving it changes its cold and its name
The reason I come and go is the same
[Chorus 1]
Animal game for me
You call it rain, but the human name
Doesn't mean shit to a tree
[Verse 2]
If you don't mind heat in your river
And fork tongue talking from me
Swim like an eel, fantastic snake
Take my love when it's free
[Chorus 2]
Electric feel with me
You call it loud, but the human crowd
Doesn't mean shit to a tree
[Bridge]
Change the strings and notes slide
Change the bridge and string shift down
Shift the notes and bridge sings
Fire eating people
Rising toys of the sun
Energy dies without body warm
Icicles ruin your gun
[Verse 3]
Water my roots, the natural thing
Natural spring to the sea
Sulfur springs make my body float
Like a ship made of logs from a tree
[Chorus 3]
Redwoods talk to me
Say it plainly, the human name
Doesn't mean shit to a tree
[Verse 4]
Snow called water going violent
Dam the end of the stream
Too much cold in one place breaks
That's why you might know what I mean
[Chorus 4]
Consider how small you are
Compared to your scream, the human dream
Doesn't mean shit to a tree
