"Woman Is A Tree" lyrics

"Woman Is A Tree"

Blow, winds, crack your cheeks!
I can't feel a thing anymore
I'm superior mother, I answer the call
There is no other, I capture the fall

Down to earth, I sink
Every night, I hear falling birds
They crash to the pavement, they're crushed underfoot
All the beaks, oh, the asphalt, I can't bear to look

Harbour in your heart
Oysters, shards of glass from the sea
My blisters are burst where my scales used to be
I foam at the mouth, carve an axe when you speak

Woman is a tree
Tenderfoot and peerless arrived
Oh, my darling is dripping in sequins and milk
The fur of a fruit bat, our limbs line the fields

Woman is a tree
Livid hero, I am here
Deluxe understanding, I'll shelter your soul
Sister of mine, you will never grow cold

Woman is the tree
Man, a clinging vine on the branch
The voices of children are heard on the hill
My heart is at rest now, and everything's still
