Testi

[Verse 1]
Fame is but a fruit tree
So very unsound
It can never flourish
Till it's stock is in the ground
[Verse 2]
So men of fame
Can never find a way
Till time has flown
Far from their dyin' day
[Chorus]
Forgotten while you're here
Remembered for a while
A much-updated ruin from a much-outdated style
[Verse 3]
Life is but a memory
Happened long ago
Theatre full of sadness
For a long-forgotten show
[Verse 4]
Seems so easy
Just to let it go on by
Till you stop and wonder
Why you never wondered why
[Bridge]
Safe in the womb of an everlasting night
You find the darkness can give the brightest light
Safe in your place, deep in the earth
That's when they'll know what you were really worth
[Chorus]
Forgotten while you're here
Remembered for a while
A much-updated ruin from a much-outdated style
[Verse 5]
Fame is but a fruit tree
So very unsound
It can never flourish
Till it's stock is in the ground
[Verse 6]
So men of fame
Can never find a way
Till time has flown
Far from their dyin' day
[Outro]
Fruit tree, fruit tree
No one knows you but the rain and the air
Don't you worry
They'll stand and stare when you're gone
[Outro]
Fruit tree, fruit tree
Open your eyes to another year
They'll all know
That you were here when you're gone
