You Didn't Hear the Redwoods

I could compulsively clean my room
Wash my sheets and the scent of you
I could go for a walk outside
Take the edge off
Or wedge the knife

Maybe hours, maybe days
Maybe I'm guilty for running away
All my vices, they know me by name
But nothing they could give me
Could ease the pain

Welcome to the Forest, Listen to the chorus
Strike at the knees, Watch the King bleed
Wouldn't you love to see the final collapse?
The Emperor's clothes
Were just a tit for the tat
Well I'm sorry to say, your efforts in vain
You won't get that picture
You were hoping to frame
Cuz I told y'all I'm breaking in silence
Or I'm not breaking at all
You will never hear the Redwood fall

Maybe hollow there maybe rings
Why don't you cut me open and see
Chip away our history
Now that you're over me

Welcome to the Forest, Listen to the chorus
Strike at the knees, Watch the King bleed
Wouldn't you love to see the final collapse?
The Emperor's clothes
Were just a tit for the tat
Well I'm sorry to say, your efforts in vain
You won't get that picture
You were hoping to frame
Cuz I told y'all I'm breaking in silence
Or I'm not breaking at all
You will never hear the Redwood fall
