Daylight's collapsing around
Us as we grow up from the ground
Waking continue the climb
To the sun as long as it shines
We're the trees
Yeah, we're the trees
From our roots all the way to our leaves
And we don't even know what we're growing for
Up by the balcony where
The air connects your neck to your hair
You stand like a tree with your roots
Buried in your new tennis shoes
We're the trees
Yeah, we're the trees
From our heads all the way through our knees
And we don't even know what we're growing for
