Eureka Birds - Applewood Figure lyrics

There is a tree by the ward that has fallen down In the wind of the storm and it hardly made a sound Oh no Oh no There is a man in padded walls And he can't explain the things he saw "Oh no," he said "Is there anybody who can help? I could cut this tree trunk here and drag it in I could sculpt and carve I could cut it back and then I could sculpt and carve I could cut it back again" Night after night he chips away But the images he saw would always stay He carves himself into the tree Oh he doesn't like what he see
