Almond Trees Lyrics

Almond trees belong in the yard

All of you belongs in my arms

Living life takes effort enough

What's the point if you don't have love?

Chain us to the planet then leave

(alive and screaming)

Leave us just enough rope to dream

(always dreaming)

Leave the sky above us, too high

(always out of reach)

Give us eyes to look at the sky

(a place we'll only see)

Still for all the love i've been shown

I am scared of dying alone

Every night i stare at a wall

Crying for the fate of us all

I don't want to think about god

His absence or existence at all

Every hour wasted on him

Is an hour you have not lived

And all i want is to sit in silence with you

(and not need to see)

To see the sky for what it is

(it's not just a place that's empty)

To pass a gravestone and not think about my own

To accept i'll die, and just exist
