lyrics

We don't see
eye to eye
I see anger
You see red in mine
You told me so
So I know
to keep my mouth closed
Gracefully grow old
and die alone

Great tree
of mushroom mould
You stand so silent
Where does the heavy rain go?
You told me so
As I grow old
Filter and hold
You're on your own

Im sorry i forgot
I'm supposed to be a man
A steady pair of hands

Flying baby
In the sky
You dream, and your dreams are realised
You're so high
By a line from your stomach to the earth
You are tied
You are alive

An old friend told me about the flies
She said she knew a great deal about my life
She lives inside a tree
Sat on a knotted wooden knee
Do you feel the same?
Wanna share the pain?
Do you freak out at the start of every day

The forest is impossible
Don't cry, Don't cry
On belonging to a world so cruel
So sly
Stealing sap from your eyes

I'm sorry I forgot
I'm supposed to be a man
A steady pair of hands
