"The Tree" lyrics

"The Tree"

I'm done filling a cup with a hole in the bottom
I'm taking an axe to the tree
The rot at the roots is the root of the problem
But you wanna blame it on me
I hung around longer than anyone should
You've broken my heart more than anyone could
Trying to stop me won't do you no good
I've already planted the seeds

Oooooo
Do you hear that
It's the sound of a new wind blowing
Oooooo
Do you feel that
Heart letting go of the weight it's been holding
I've made miracles in the shadows
But now that I'm out in the sun
I'll never stop growing
Wherever I'm going
Hope I'm not the only one

I'm done filling a cup with a hole in the bottom
And screaming the truth to a liar
Spent ten thousand hours trying to fight it with
Flowers
When the tree was already on fire
Yeah, the tree was already on fire

Oooooo
Do you hear that
It's the sound of a new wind blowing
Oooooo
Do you feel that
Heart letting go of the weight it's been holding
I've made miracles in the shadows
But now that I'm out in the sun
I'll never stop growing
Wherever I'm going
Hope I'm not the only one

Oooooo
Do you see that
It's the light of a better day dawning
Oooooo
Do you hear that
That's the sound of the tree falling
Oooooo
Do you hear that
It's the sound of a new wind blowing
Oooooo
Do you feel that
Heart letting go of the weight it's been holding
I've made miracles in the shadows
But now that I'm out in the sun
I'll never stop growing
Wherever I'm going
Hope I'm not the only one
Hope I'm not the only one
Hope I'm not the only one
