lyrics

Man outside he’s seen the light
Said he wanted me to step inside with him

Oh what he said
I’ll sing for you

He said art at its best is a series of mistakes
He said love at its best is a life of heartache

Well hello tree it’s ol me
Thanks for giving me the air I breathe
It’s been a while I’ve been a child
I’ve been cutting down your whole family

And I hope there’s still some air left for me

Well I’ve seen men come and go
Seen em rise up to the top
Seen em dyin on the floor
Well I used to play for the concert halls
People were screamin for more
But now I’m playin for the empty walls
And I don’t know what for
