The Trees Are Alive

If the trees are alive then I guess I am too
Feel the need to survive, looking for things to do
Just to prove that I'm here
And I was when I'm gone
If the trees are alive, then I wanna be one

If my soul is a fire, my body's a forest
The music is water, the void is a chorus
I hear when it calls me
From under the blue
If my soul is a fire, I wanna be cool
All the trees are alive and I wish I were too

All my idols are just two-dimensional things
In my head, on the wall, in the light of my screen
And it's lonely, I know
But I'm seeing it through
Oh my idol you're dead and I wanna be you

Oh I'm gonna get there someday
I can feel it, the horizon drawing near
I wanna live to be
Taller than a sycamore
Burning brighter than a meteor
Dying like a distant star

Oh my love is a ghost and I guess I am too
Dreaming up visions of light breaking through
How it builds and it swells
And the climax is you

I will live, I will die, I will make something new
I will live, I will die, I will put it to use
