When We Were Trees

You fell to fast like cannon ball
But the fishnets talking hands caught me again
And your hat explodes like nothing's wrong
My God we lay there silent for an hour
The birds they watch like funeral
And they sing us all their pretty funeral songs

Ya way, ya way hallelujah
What a mess that you have made again this time
Tempt us, temp'us hallelujah
And the birds they cry and watch us as we squall
And as we fall

And we must have layed alone for hours
I could feel your cold black creeping up my arm
And I asked you if you were alright
But the bubbles from your mouth gave out alarms
And our mothers ran towards your ghost
While our fathers tried to fix your egg shelled head, and they're singing

Haunty, dumpty hallelujah
Oh, the king himself could not fix you again
Now I sing because I miss you
And I meant to tell you that I was scared
I was scared
