There are times, when I'd rather be a tree Oh not worried, not worried bout a thing Holding tight to the dirt underneath Spending my life exploring every shade of green There are things, things I wish I was So many things, Im running from I'd sell my soul To discover things unknown Set fire to all thats cold Watch the world unfold But the truth is that I'm terrified There's nobody on the other side There has never been a reason for this life There are days, when I'd rather be a bird I could do what I want completely undeterred Singing songs of the things I overheard Spend my life up in the sky above the earth There are things, things I wish I was So many things, Im running from I'd sell my soul To discover things unknown Set fire to all thats cold Watch the world unfold But the truth is that I'm terrified There's nobody on the other side There has never been a reason for this life It all seems so foolish To pretend I can do this Take my fear and subdue it In a world of make believe Oh it all seems so foolish If all we are is what we see Is there nothing more to this Or is it all, just make believe I'd sell my soul To discover things unknown Set fire to all thats cold Watch the world unfold But the truth is that I'm terrified There's nobody on the other side There has never been a reason for this life
