The Dogwood Tree

from Set in a Stem by Moral Circus

/

lyrics

are you coming to the tree / mother waits to let me down / soldiers took away my clothes / she will save away the crown // are you coming to the tree when ground shakes as a leaf / when the clouds are churning black and the curtain cracks / are you coming anyway // are you coming to the woods / where my little brothers grow / and my sisters push themselves through the thorny undergrowth // why’s your soil gone so dry / is my water not enough / why’s your branches missing leaves / why’s your skin become so tough // la la la la la la la // are you coming to the cave / oh where you going on your walk / if i’m silent are you brave / if i’m frightened will you talk // were you there when they nailed’m to the tree / oh sometimes it causes me to tremble
