Lyrics
Make or breaking it down
Shaking the tree
Making the fruit fall
Whys and wherefores
Fall to the floor
You can summon it up
And gather your strength
Then gather what’s left
And watch as life
Expands and blooms
Calamities
And casualties
But hints of something new
After years
Of sitting by
Courage coaxed the new
Make or breaking it down
Shaking the tree
Making the fruit fall
Whys and wherefores
Fall to the floor
You can summon it up
And gather your strength
Then gather what’s left
And watch as life
Expands and blooms
Calamities
And casualties
But hints of something new
After years
Of sitting by
Courage coaxed the new
Tied and tethered
Ropes they bound and burned
Now loosened and weathered
So let go
It’s your turn
it’s your turn
Make or breaking it down
Shaking the tree
Making the fruit fall
