Trees

(album: Twenty - 2022)

Didn't know who I'd be
Frail at fifteen
I drove off the road
Under covers of leaves

Heavy hearted we fell
No one can hear a sound

But the trees
Don't know who I'd be
Without you and me

Miles of streets
All pile on me
The weight isn't free
And I fade into weeks

You grab my hand and walk out
Made a floor of branches we found

In the trees
Don't know who I'd be
Without you and me

The roots in the ground
Are holding us now
The pavement on top
Keeps us dry from above

The limbs aren't perfect but sound
Making life out of puzzles we found

In the trees
Don't want to be
Someone without you and me
Without you and me
