Tall trees are falling free
But well away from making sound
The woods are thick and the breeze is quick
You’re lost and never ever found
Who comes running when the dog whistles calling?
Who’s responding when they bark?
Who comes running when the dog whistles calling bawling?
Who can find you in the dark?
A planted flag that’s so keenly tagged
But it’s buried well below the muck
The dimming hordes who should've adored
Don’t seem to really give a fuck
Who comes running when the dog whistles calling?
Who’s responding when they bark?
Who comes running when the dog whistles calling bawling?
Who can find you in the dark?
One voice in the crowd
Waits to get loud
But never allowed
Lost in the cloud
Algorithms away
So much to say
But no light of day
Forever astray
Barking up those missing trees
Their leaves have withered into dust
Making plans for grains of sand
And watching optimism rust
A harmless bite that’s forever slight
Fools shouting into the deaf's ears
The freest speech beyond the voices reach
A silence everyone can hear
Who comes running when the dog whistles calling?
Who’s responding when they bark?
Who comes running when the dog whistles calling bawling?
Who can find you in the dark?
Who comes running when the dog whistles calling?
Who’s responding when they bark?
Who comes running when the dog whistles calling bawling?
Who can find you in the dark?
