Olive Tree

My olive tree, I'll be right here
Though I am gone, I'm always near
All of those nights when you can't sleep
I'll feel your heart and cry every tear

My olive tree, do you hear my voice
Does anything break through the noise
Don't cast your eyes upon the ground
Look at me reaching out across the void

And I know that you gotta stay strong
But you can't bear this, you can't bear this all on your own
So cry, it's okay to let it all fall down
Cause you're never truly alone

So many days, you cannot eat
The ache in your head reached down to your feet
Look in the mirror and know that you are still you
This doesn't have to, doesn't have to end in defeat

So don't, don't you ever cut yourself down
No, those blades, they will never help you feel what is true
I know your pain, and I feel it too
Love is a knife, cut straight through my chest
And I love you

My olive tree, I'll be right here
Though I am gone, I'm always near
