What For

Today, I won't think of any sad things Will not think of torture, or the rape of nature Just today, I won't touch those sickening papers Will just let myself get swept away by this beautiful day What for, tell oh me, tell oh me, what for What for, tell oh me, tell oh me, what for The sunset tonight is beyond all words, in the sky above the square The starling spiral dancing on air. What for, tell oh me, tell oh me, what for What for, tell oh me, tell oh me, what for I will pass through the glass into air past those birds In the square, I am sun, I am sky in my mind's eye Today, I will dive into foaming seas Sick fish, myself, and some strange debris. I would prefer to be anywhere away from here 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 What for, tell oh me, tell oh me, what for I will pass through the glass into air past those birds In the square I am sun I am sky What for, tell oh me tell oh me, what for What for, tell oh me, tell oh me, what for
