Today I found a mighty tree   So silent and alone   I scaled his arms so carefully   A king upon his throne   Repetitious voices tell you to behave   But here above the meadow   Branches you keep you safe      High above the world   I looked through a hole   You seemed so out of place   With that look on your face   It seemed so far   There's a hole in the world   And it fits in this room   Can you see it burning through   Down to the other side   Far from view      When all you know is what you've been told   It's a sad, sad world   The higher you climb   The brighter it shines   The quicker it takes a hold   When repetitious voices tell you to behave   Here above the meadow   Branches you keep you safe      High above the world   I looked through a hole   You seemed so out of place   With that look on your face   It seemed so far   There's a hole in the world   And it fits in this room   Can you see it burning through   Down to the other side   Far from view
