Apple

(album: See Me Now - 2010)

I sunk my teeth into
Something that looked like you
If you were frightened, then I politely ignored
And I bit down a little bit more

I broke through your thick skin
And tasted the sweet within
And you tried to hide your bruises but
I saw them and all I knew was

I had never tasted anything like this before
Never known, never seen for myself
That I could ever even dream of tasting something more than bread

Then you started to oxidize
Changing right there before my eyes
So I waited then laid you down
Where I found you on that spot in the ground

I had never tasted anything like this before
Never known, never seen for myself
That I could ever even dream of tasting something more than bread

Then I said, what tree did you fall from?
Oh, I said what tree did you fall, fall from?

Apples, apples, apples in my mouth
Apples, apples, apples in my mouth

Apple, you're hanging in the tree
Waiting to be eaten, come on, fall on to me
Remind me why I'm walking and I'm sinking heavy low
Using gravity in my excuses not to go, go, go

I sunk my teeth into
I sunk my teeth into you...
