Adaptive Divide - Giving Tree Lyrics

Giving tree, giving tree
You gave to much to me from the top of your hill
Giving tree, giving tree
From the second I was born, they told me I was evil
Oh giving tree, giving tree
How do you see the good in me?
A motherly connection
Giving tree, giving tree
I've come here to ask,
Will you give me your leaves to shield from my past?
Giving tree, giving tree
You gave them so willingly
I don't know how I could ever thank
Giving tree, giving tree
I have run back to thee
I ask for your comfort to sleep
You offer your stability
Saying oh so kindly
"Oh course, mija, come rest at my feet"
Oh giving tree, giving tree
I asked to reach new heights
So you give your branches
Oh giving tree, giving tree
Oh giving tree, giving tree
I am starving
So you give me your apples to eat
Oh giving tree, giving tree
My wife she is sorry
We need a place to live
You offer me your life
Just to show that I can love
Your lumber made a home for my spirt
Oh giving tree, giving tree
Your stump is now rotted
My selfishness on full display
Even in your last seconds
You told me it was a blessing
To be able to live with me
Then you asked me to stay
So I sat there with you
Oh giving tree, for once I give to you
The only thing that I as a human know to do
A good death through and through
Giving tree
It's ok
Let go of me
Today
I'm so sorry
I stole your life
I plead, "Just forgive me"
The giving tree,
She softly looked past me
Took a deep breath in
Told me she understands
Well I was just like you
So this is what I say
It's ok to turn the page
Close this chapter there are matters
Much more pressing at hand
Like are you going to collage?
Will you have a daughter?
Things things you need to understand
Oh giving tree, giving tree
I'm so very sorry
You took your last breath with me
The rotted roots are where a cross would be
To find the buried
