If a tree falls in the forest...
I am a tree.
In a forest
With nobody around me
And the wind is beating me
Bending me, making me strain
Trying to stay upright
With my roots in the ground.
But the wind is too strong
And slowly then all at once
I fall.
So, if a tree falls, and no one is around to hear it, what does it sound like?
I can tell you.
I've fallen
And no one was there
To hear me
In a forest
With nobody around me
And the wind is beating me
Bending me, making me strain
Trying to stay upright
With my roots in the ground.
But the wind is too strong
And slowly then all at once
I fall.
So, if a tree falls, and no one is around to hear it, what does it sound like?
I can tell you.
I've fallen
And no one was there
To hear me
