Apple Tree

All of my life I've been hunting
I've been a girl, I've been a boy
Digging my feet into the ground
Like an apple tree
Wanting to live with a purpose

Skin is a word, love is not a sin
People are bad, people are good
Just like the moon is a stone
But it's a star when it's dark
And now she's hiding

If you've seen what a heart is
You've seen its colour
If I ever knew how we could guide it

I would take care of its children
Become their mother
If I ever knew how we could hide it
Hide it

Let her save the world
She is just a girl
Let him save them all
He is just a boy

Let her save the world
She is just a girl
Let him save them all
He is just a boy

Hunger is quiet, if you do it right
Hunter is loud and predictable
Scaring away every prey
So they are gone
Before the hunter arrives

Would you be kind, and put away your sword
You cannot cut away what we got
You cannot kill what we are
We are not here
In physical form

You've seen where the knife is
Its dark location
If I ever knew how we could fight it
(Fight it)

I would cut into our anger
Make pure emotion
If I ever knew how we could hide it
Hide it

Let her save the world
She is just a girl
Let him save them all
He is just a boy

Let her save the world
She is just a girl
Let him save them all
He is just a boy

Can you carry the weight of mortality?
The explosions around you are your symphony

Let her save the world
She is just a girl
Let him save them all
He is just a boy

Let her save the world
She is just a girl
Let him save them all
He is just a boy
