Tree Among Shrubs

[Verse 1]
You make no sound
As folks gather ‘round
Like shadow hounds
Eyes seem unsound
As folks gather ‘round
And please you aloud

[Chorus 1]
And I now believe that no one asked
About your secret past
The pain to match your strength
And I now believe that no one thought
You had a lonely past
The pain and strengths so vast

[Verse 2]
From mellow seas
To houses on wheels
To slabs in West lands
Hand in hand
From yellow bills
To slabs in West lands
Like bones in your hands

[Bridge]
But I see a tree that's standing high among the shrubs
So only one hand may rest its palm upon my cheeks

[Pre-Chorus]
The only one that I'll need

[Chorus 2]
To know why no one asked
About your secret past
The pain to match your strength
And I now believe that no one thought
You had a lonely past
And pain to match your vein

[Post-Chorus]
When it rains
