Living Tree Wild Child

Run around the living tree
With my lover standing at my feet
The branches mean so much to me
But the leaves taste oh so sweet

Run around the living tree
I have become what you made of me
Can root me down or set me free
But I’m not what you should be

Can’t remember last I saw you
Walk through that door
Can’t remember how we got
This blood on the floor
Oh baby, thinking I would let you
Try and settle the score
But it might hurt me now
I didn’t feel before

Think I lost my mind and spirits
Head full of stone
I swear I got home late last night
And you weren’t alone
Oh baby, thinking all the lies I used
To build myself on
It’s nights like these that tear
The stitches that I’d sewn
