ASPEN GROVE

Was it all for nothing?
Do you miss the nights
In your 2007 Honda Civic driving through the fields together?
Oh, I feel sick
Tell me why I can’t get through to you
Like I used to do

Cut at the stem
The leaves won’t grow
Roots break and bend
The tree still rose
I will stand at the edge of the aspen grove
Till fire and smoke
You’re not alone

Not tall enough to see (6’3)
What lies beyond the trees
Should take it piece by piece
But I sit in silence act like its all fine
To tear it down
Lie
Watch it burn to the ground
And see what I leave

Cut at the stem
The leaves won’t grow
Roots break and bend
The tree still rose
I will stand at the edge of the aspen grove
Till fire and smoke
You’re not alone

Reach for the sky
Stand by my side
Branches decay
But still we rise
Wait for the dawn
Look to the light
We’ll carry on
Until we die

Reach for the sky
Stand by my side
Branches decay
But still we rise
Wait for the dawn
Look to the light
Those days are gone
Live for tonight

Cut at the stem
The leaves won’t grow
Roots break and bend
The tree still rose
I will stand at the edge of the aspen grove
Till fire and smoke
You’re not alone
