[Verse 1] In the fir tree days, I was on your back I had no shoes back then, you picked up the slack And spirit guides were pulling me limb from limb I said a prayer for you, so you wanted to stay [Chorus] We would eat the birds we caught that evening In the wild days [Verse 2] And in the nighttime we sat by the fireside Nothing to think of, but I want to survive And spirit guides were kept on the inside They carved the symbols into my eyes [Chorus] They told me you were leaving in my dreaming I thought that I had timе [Instrumental Break] [Verse 3] But then you left that day with a big suitcase Just likе a city boy who made a disgusted face And spirit guides were all going silent I hoped the dark would stay under your fingernails [Chorus] I hope that there are trees outside your window I hope you'll come back some day, mhm
