The Tangled Tree

Footsteps on the cold ground
Lead straight to your door
And the birds in my tangled tree
Sing of love but call to war
Beautiful birds are not meant to be caged
You should have been true to your wings
You should have flown away
So left my tangled tree
That once bore strong branches and leaves of green
But how cruel and inevitable the passing of time can be
Its wood doesn't grow
It's bent and it's much too old
Somehow in it's twisted arms
I never felt alone
This tangled tree
Watched every inch of its majesty fade
With fall of every leaf
It always seemed to call me
The crooked stoop, the bend and swoop
Of its complicated beauty
They cut it up to burn it down
Bright lights rise out and over the fire

This morning I fell off
The pedestal you put me on
And I don't remember promising
To be the one
Just someone
But sadly someone is never enough
If you want stars
Enlightened dreams fulfilled with answers
That I cannot provide
If you don't want the truth
Then I'd never be right by your side

I could wish one thousand
To be in the light that caught your eye
And I could wish one thousand more
To be the one that you'll adore
But o'er my head you're searching far
Some more bright beguiling star
And fair young girls from wide and far
come see what bright young man you are
Please don't fall in love
Me too small, too lean, too low
Possess no charms to thrill you so
And though my heart with love does grow
It lacks the strength to tell you so
But o'er my head you're searching far
Some more bright beguiling star
And fair young girls, I know they are
Will steal your heart and drag you far
Please don't fall in love
In sleep I dream I catch your glance
One starry night, moonlight we dance
I hold my breath wait for my chance
To see one night through in your arms
But o'er my head you're searching far
Some more bright beguiling star
But their shine in time will pass
And woe true love forever lasts
Please don't fall in love

Some give an inch
But I need an mile
I'm not weak
The wolf is sly
Just get dazed by its eyes
Can't leave a trail
Cos breadcrumbs we tried
And you never fall the same way every time
You just lose, bruise and wise
Learn to lose, bruise and get wise
I cannot rest
No place to lay me head
And I can't help feeling alone
When nothing feels like home
Some give an inch
But I'll give a mile
I'm not weak
The wolf is sly
Just get dazed by its eyes
