The Giving Tree

Sticks and stones may break my bones
But they also built my home
Going down is my new theme
with a shout of empathy
It takes a blindness to be free
Of all the sickness I have seen
I am the giving tree
The best I have ever been
The hard times of being young
Too old for body and blood
The engine is running fast
The blank slate is in my past
The top fades into the sun
But my life has just begun
It takes a blindness to be free
Of all the sickness i have seen
I am the giving tree
The best I have ever been
The best I have ever been
The best I have ever been

He gave you all he had
So there's no room left for me
When he told you he was gone
There goes the back door key
Your hearts about to break
Walking in the water
Theres nothing I can't drink
Take me to your father
I wanna change your mind
With all the things you need
There was no room left for more
But the fire in them was bright
When you were only born
You know you sucked them dry
Walking in the water
Theres nothing I can't drink
Take me to your father
I wanna change your mind
I wanna change your mind
I wanna change your mind

Sign The Papers

I've been seeing the side of you whoa
Taking over the bride in you wa-oh
When you've got more than you asked for
It's kind of hard to refuse
So hun if this is a stake out
Then I got nothing to lose
My mind starts to race
This is not the time or the place
I don't wanna hurt you
But you're pushing me there
Could I be sick of desire
When it feels the same
What was once in the making
Is now for which I'm blamed
If I could tell you to hold me
I wouldn't need you to try
My mind starts to race
This is not the time or the place
I don't wanna hurt you
But you're pushing me there
My mind starts to race
I was so dedicated
Now you can sign those papers
I don't care
My mind starts to race
This is not the time or the place
I don't wanna hurt you
But you're pushing me there
But you're pushing me there

Once I was a young man with diamonds in my head
I dreamt of something larger to hold in my hand
I never found out whats over that bridge
But what it could be can beat whatever it is
And if you want it, come and get it
Darling, it's too late we're getting out
Don't let me fade out when the love in me is dead
It was never more than a means to a dark and bitter end
And I need persuasion to cross the bridge instead
I've got so much to learn, there's too much life to burn
And if you want it, come and get it
Without a cause, without a role
Without the stories that you've told
And if you want it, come and get it
Darling, Its too late we're getting out
And if you want it, come and get it
With out a cause without a role
Without the stories that you've told
And if you want it, come and get it
Darling, It's too late we're getting old
And if you want it, It's too late we're getting old
And if you want it, it's too late we're getting old
It's too late we're getting old
It's too late we're getting old

Steal all you need from me
Take whatever you see, I plead
Oh and I can feel it
The way you still can't see it
It steals my soul a shadow
This mind a fear I follow
I'm broke but I don't need fixing
You live a life worth missing
I feel like im always dying
I seem too tired of trying
But I know that you're always sleeping
And my soul you'll be keeping
Wrapped around one of your fingers
Like one of your dark features
I feel the need to be gone
Oh and I can feel it
The way you still can't see it
It steals my soul a shadow
This mind a fear I follow
Oh girl, now it wont be long
Oh and I can feel it
The way you still can't see it
It steals my soul a shadow
This mind a fear I follow

It could be the reason that you waste the rest of your life
Take the time to breathe in if it takes the rest of the night
Break my back until I feel no need to walk
My replacement says its all about
losing it in the end
In the end
It could be the reason that you waste the rest of your life
Take the time to breathe in if it takes the rest of the night
