The Tree Of Modern Life

They grow
they wither

they live
they die

no mothers
no fathers

but with the earth
they'd known laughter

cast shades for the young
and the old

and they grow
as they grow older


they're put in burners
to comfort families

and for future generations
building houses in nice seasons

crooked trees live longer
oh i do miss warm weathers
