Lyrics

My backyard
Why’d you cut down that tree
Don’t you remember
That used to be our spot
Now the porch view looks different to me
There’s a cottonwood tree where I live now
And it reminds me of my backyard
I didn’t really know it
But I was fine to begin with
So I’ll try
To fake myself out a bit
Take myself out of real life
Structural analysis
To find myself some peace and quiet
I don’t curse
Because it doesn’t come that natural to me
Not because I think you’re wrong or right
Nothing to do with anything directed at me
I don’t like
When you up the price of my property
Where is the line
Between my work and the place and time for jubilee
So I’ll try
To fake myself out a bit
Take myself out of real life
Structural analysis
To find myself some peace and quiet
I’d like to open up a conversation
You’re sitting in the back row and I’m staring you down
No unexpected listener, no change in information
I guess I didn’t notice that the road kept wrapping around
My backyard
Why’d you cut down that tree
Don’t you remember
That used to be our spot
Now the porch view looks different to me
