When I walked in the lane of sequoias
I breathed in fully one time
And sent two thousand prayers to the wind
To save us from all the pain of before
Before the river dried up
Before everything is carried away
I want to return to the lane
Hear the sequoias sing
Tame the silence, the weakness of my voice
And inhabit my own body for the first time
I've kept all the secrets of the wind well
Mixed with thick sap and my blood
Before the trees were murdered
Before everything is carried away
I want to return to the lane
Hear the sequoias cry
When I walked in the lane of sequoias
I breathed in fully one time
