Lyrics

Today, I won`t think of any sad things

Expressing a decision to avoid dwelling on sad thoughts today.

Will not think of torture, or the rape of nature

Committing not to think about acts of cruelty or harm to nature.

Just today, I won`t touch those sickening papers

Deciding to refrain from dealing with unpleasant documents or tasks.

Will just let myself get swept away by this beautiful day

Choosing to be carried away by the beauty of the present day.


What for, tell oh me, tell oh me, what for

Persistently questioning the purpose or meaning of current actions or circumstances.

What for, tell oh me, tell oh me, what for

-

The sunset tonight is beyond all words, in the sky above the square

Describing the indescribable beauty of the sunset and the captivating dance of starlings in the sky.

The starling spiral dancing on air.

-

What for, tell oh me, tell oh me, what for

Continuing to inquire about the purpose or reason behind certain experiences.

What for, tell oh me, tell oh me, what for

-

I will pass through the glass into air past those birds

Expressing a desire to transcend physical barriers and become one with the surroundings, embodying elements of nature.

In the square, I am sun, I am sky in my mind`s eye

-

Today, I will dive into foaming seas

Anticipating an immersive experience in tumultuous seas alongside sick fish and strange debris.

Sick fish, myself, and some strange debris.

-

I would prefer to be anywhere away from here

Strongly expressing a preference to be anywhere else but the current location.

Oh I would prefer to be anywhere away from here

-

I would prefer to be anywhere away from here

-

I would prefer to be anywhere away from here

-

What for, tell oh me tell oh me, what for

Repeating the questioning of the purpose or significance of the current situation.

What for, tell oh me, tell oh me, what for

-

I will pass through the glass into air past those birds

Reiterating the desire to transcend barriers and become a part of the natural surroundings.

In the square I am sun I am sky

-

What for, tell oh me tell oh me, what for

Continuing to seek understanding of the purpose or meaning behind present circumstances.

What for, tell oh me, tell oh me, what for
