Walking Trees

Shaking from your cold lips
Talking in blue
You’ll keep on lying 'till you think it’s true
Listening to your secrets
Clouded by the cloud
Were you beginning to believe what you can’t say out loud
There’s a body in a room far from the river
But water remembers every dream that you’ve given
Fighting with the sky
Are you caught in the dirty machine
Can’t start missing the face you’ve never seen
If we can find one place to blow the roots down
But we’re like walking trees
We can’t stay in the ground
If we could always keep moving
And never stay where we are
We have to hold to the underground
To reach up to the stars
We may not have much
But we have what we need …
To keep walkin' this world until our lives are freed
