I am a tree
Waiting to be
Chopped down to the ground
If I fall
Do I make a sound?
If no-one's around
I am a tree
Waiting to be
Chopped into pieces
And fed to the machine
With paper thin skin
All tied up in knots
I'll try to fight
But my bark is worse than bite
And everything's changing
It's true
I used to stand tall
With you
But those days are gone.
