Lost Tree

Their arms, they reach They branch like they're trying to catch me They stand so tirelessly Outgrown, the sides of roads are mixed in gold The summer has me The summer has me sold I see the hints Just picture it Craving to witness But we blinked and missed it Beg to the sky, long days and old nights Beg to the sky, long days and old nights Here we are, rooted deep Looking up, so sun sweet Until the fall we lose it all Here we are Thin and bare, stuck in a stiff stare I wait up in the air That makes it all fair We stop and grow and stop and grow We co-exist, flourished and sun-kissed Anything you'd like Your back road eyes They're getting dry, an unnatural smile You're lost in this place I see it in your face Lost in this place I see it in your face Here we are, rooted deep Looking up, so sun sweet Until the fall we lose it all Here we are Yeah There's a vulture on my shoulder The time I'm wasting Can't say where I've been Hey, mind reader Don't let me get away Don't let me get away So easy Stranger I know so well Don't let me get away Don't let me get away Blame it on the television You make your own love I'm pulling, I'm pushing I'm putting it out of my mind We aim our arrows high Oh dear, I've worked with father sky So why don't we just quit? Don't let me get away Don't let me get away So why don't we just quit? Don't let me get away Don't let me get away I'm lost in it There's a vulture on my shoulder Don't let me get away Don't let me get away I'm lost in it So lost in it
