Deliberately Lyrics

I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately

To find comfort in the crackling

To find solace in thinking too much about everything

To let blue light fizzle

To front only the essential facts of life

And see if I could not learn what it had to teach

And not, when I came to die

Discover that I had not lived

And to ponder the water

And to feel insightful

And to let the car sounds on the road several feet away

Become the birds
