lyrics

I always wondered if trees could talk, oh the stories they'd tell.
Of hearts that were broken, of lies that were spoken, of armies that fell.
I wonder if they're fed up with those kids leaving bottles by their roots,
or if they understand, courtesy isn't something inherent in many youths.

From their perspective, the things I linger on must seem so small.
See, I'm writing page after page, losing sleep over nothing at all.
A romantic realist, I'm a hopeful cynic, I'm a monster judging monsters in the dark.
But I wanna be the mighty oak, with leaves that prod and poke through the sunlight that blinds you while you give away your heart.

See I could spend a whole lifetime writing everyday and have my last book hit the shelves too late...
But I'll never write the memoirs of a redwood or describe any sunset like the pines can in spring.
And I'll never have a bird raise its family in my arms or be your rest stop on a warm, sunny day.
But I might one day get cut down and turned to paper, so you can write your thoughts when you find out what you've always wanted to say to me.

Even the saplings must see me so clear.
That I'm a monster shooting monsters out of fear.
Even the saplings must see me so clear
I'm just a monster shooting monsters.
