lyrics

Tree Song
(based on the Little Fur series written by Isobelle Carmody)

Verse 1:
It was someone allowed to enter the forest
It was a vision that brought them here before us
Philosopher beneath the edge of the world
Beneath the bottomless sleep that drew me here
Dream of dreams

Chorus 1:
You woke me with a song
You woke me with a song
Told it me it wouldn’t be long
Until the world was all but gone

Verse 2:
Of shadows first that sent me deeper
Of the callous measures of the reaper
Encased in fire you brought a plea to me
And so I tired and wished I’d cease to be

Chorus 2:
But to stir when the stone face of an angel
Grew warm under your touch
And all the voices heard together
Thawed my frozen form, but it isn’t much
But maybe it’s enough, enough
Maybe it’s enough, enough

Verse 3:
Black road that I can never cross
Was it you I saw in my head
under the cherry tree
Its sweet smell now rotting under the bridge
In the cracks we left them there
To face the facts
To face the facts

Chorus 1:

Verse 4:
My mind was stolen from me
The one I called my brother
Through me ran a current of fire, of fire
He doused me in his curiosity
And now I shudder at this clean touch before me

And I’ve drowned in my own blood before
And I don’t ask why, not anymore
I’ve drowned in my own blood before
But I never knew someone like you before
someone like you before

(to face the facts, facts
before the world was all but gone)

Chorus 1:

(before the world was all but gone)
