Under the Tree
[Verse 1]
You watch me pace around the room, my discontent
The weight of my unrest bears down
I am a mother, but the child's still inside
Ever keen of what I am without
[Chorus]
I'll always be under the tree
Waiting for someone to come to me
I watch them rot and fall away
Everything I'd take and I'm hungry
[Verse 2]
I was a kid and I'd skip school to write my songs
If I didn't, I'd have died far too young
See your shadow's something you can't chase away
I figured how to live with all this pain
I sing to that from whence I came
The dark beckons the flame
[Chorus]
I'll always be under the tree
Waiting for someone to come to me
I watch them rot and fall away
Everything I'd take and I'm hungry
I'm hungry, I'm hungry for them all
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
If I like it, I can have it
I get what I want
If I like it, I can have it
I get what I want
If I like it, I can have it
I get what I want
If I like it, I can have it
Reach right out and grab it
If I like it, I can have what I want
If I like it, I can have it
Reach right out and grab it
If I like it, I can have what I want
[Outro]
If I like it, I can have it
