Four Cypresses Lyrics
Instead of moving
You stared into the wall
Tangled up in a pile
It's early
Make no sound
Living in a pile
It's chaos but it works
Planes flying overhead so early
Dreadful sound
Four cypresses seen from a neighbor's yard
No memory
A future, drawing down
Planes flying overhead so early
Make no sound
Four cypresses torn from the roadside
Great thundering noise from the hillside
Some thousands of years built it up
Some crumbling form to be torn down
Living in a pile
Tangled in a pile
It's chaos but it works
You stared into the wall
Tangled up in a pile
It's early
Make no sound
Living in a pile
It's chaos but it works
Planes flying overhead so early
Dreadful sound
No memory
A future, drawing down
Planes flying overhead so early
Make no sound
Great thundering noise from the hillside
Some thousands of years built it up
Some crumbling form to be torn down
Tangled in a pile
It's chaos but it works

Society is complete bullshit, and this song can see through it. Instead of living in a more natural and primitive state, and be free as individuals, we choose to cooperate, living in a pile. Is chaos but it works. And suddenly you find yourself living in a complete artificial state, with just four cypresses seen from the neighbor yard, and the dreadful sound of airplanes flying through your generic artificial simple life. Some crumbling form to be torn down. Let's be free!
