The world taught me well to fear the dark

Now when I walk into mine, I hold hands with the trees

They tell me that if you let yourself grow where you're scared

You'll soon see how to stand strong till morning breaks

I'm getting braver in these wintering woods

One shadowy mile at a time

I'm learning that silence isn't lacking,

Its cacophony is rather deafening

But if you let the trees teach you how to listen

You can begin to parse apart its truths

So now love, what does your silence say?
