NO TREES

I know my days are numbered
But I guess they always were
No door behind me
How did I end up here?
Is there nothing I can offer
To keep the man at bay?
No, no, I know, I know
The countdown starts today

Looked out the window
Arid ground and clear, clear sky
It's only how and when and where
No longer matters why
I wish I could belong to you
The first one and the last
I wish we had more future
Than we've had as our past

No trees
No susurration
No trees
To catch the wind
No trees
To hear confession
No trees
To forgive our sins

No trees
To shade the broken-hearted
No trees
To hear our cries
No trees
For the souls of the departed
No trees
To give us life
No trees
To hold the water
No trees
To catch the rain
No trees
To hide the lovers
No trees
To carve our names...
