Feel the wind
Burn through my skin
The pain, the air is killing me
For years, my limbs
Stretched to the sky
A nest for birds to sit and sing
But now, my branches suffer
And my leaves don't bare the glow
They did so long ago
One day, I was full of life
My sap was rich, and I was strong
From seed to tree
I grew so tall
Through wind and rain, I could not fall
But now, my branches suffer
And my leaves don't offer
Poetry to men of song
Trees like me weren't meant to live
If all this world can give
Pollution and slow death
Oh Lord, I lay me down
No life's left to be found
There's nothing left for me
Trees like me weren't meant to live
If all this Earth can give is pollution
Trees like me weren't meant to live (Oh Lord, I lay me down)
If all this Earth can give (My branches to the ground)
Is pollution (There's nothing left for me)
Oh Lord, I lay me down
My branches to the ground
