Saving The Tree

I don't want to come back anymore
This house is filled with anger, lies and pain
I don't know why I still come back
I keep hoping for love, finding only hatred again

Every time I walk through the door
feel like a piece of shit they keep trying to scrape off their floor
I love them all but it hardly shows
I lie curled on the ground just trying to fend off the blows

Brothers, let it drift away
Don't you know tomorrow
it won't matter anyway
Mother, smile and laugh for me
Don't you know your anger
Slowly kills the tree

Sometimes when I close my eyes
I remember the days of love and not of lies
Is your disdain jelousy?
'Cause what I'm doing could be you instead of me

Brothers, let it drift away
Don't you know tomorrow
it won't matter anyway
Mother, smile and laugh for me
Don't you know your anger
Slowly kills the tree

And I would give everything away
If I could have just one more happy day
SOLO


Brothers, let it drift away
Don't you know tomorrow
it won't matter anyway
Mother, smile and laugh for me
Don't you know your anger
Slowly kills the tree

Brothers, let it drift away
Don't you know tomorrow
it won't matter anyway
Mother, smile and laugh for me
Don't you know your anger
Slowly kills the tree
