There's a tree

Outside my home

The sidewalks cracked

Out where it's roots have grown

Someday came

And then left me alone

I should've known back then

That I stayed too long

I should've known better

I should've known better

I should've known better

But I don't believe I can

If my feet

Could carve stone

They'd mark a monument

That's never wrong

I was a man

I turned to bone

I never moved and now my

My will is gone

I should've known better

I should've known better

I should've known better

But I don't believe, well, I don't believe

No, I don't believe I can
