Windhorse (feat. Sophie Marks) - Of The Trees

We were young, we were lost But we travelled not knowing the cost Nothing behind us, just road ahead Unashamed of the things that we did It's you who asked me to stay It's you who pushed me away Out in the rain, where I've been for days I'll stay forever here in the storm Out in the rain, until your heart changes I've made this weather, this weather my home Out in the rain Days have come and days have gone But we'll stay on this road 'til it's done The stars remind me of when we were one Before all of my sky came undone It's you who's making this hard It's you who pushed me this far Out in the rain, where I've been for days I'll stay forever here in the storm Out in the rain, until your heart changes I've made this weather, this weather my home Out in the rain Out in the rain Out in the rain In the rain Yeah it's you (it's you) who pushed me away (Who pushed me away) It's you (it's you) 'cause it's never too late Out in the rain, where I've been for days I'll stay forever here in the storm Out in the rain, until your heart changes I've made this weather, this weather my home Out in the rain, where I've been for days (where I've been for days) I'll stay forever here in the storm (here in the storm) Out in the rain (rain) until your heart changes (changes) I've made this weather, this weather my home Out in the rain

Got a gypsy soul, I'm a rebel and rogue And I'm always on the run With a fire inside, I ain't ever gonna die I'm a locked and loaded gun When the matches strike and the gasoline lights It's only just begun One thing I learned is you can watch it all burn But the flame ain't ever done Ah-ooh Raise 'em up a little higher, your lighters Outlaws and outsiders Ah-ooh Some call me a renegade, the enemy Throw your hands up if you feel the same Whoa, living life at the edge Just say what you wanna say or walk away I'll stand tall when there's hell to pay Ain't no power higher We're the outlaws and outsiders Mmm, yeah I was born in the dark with a fearless heart And a taste for the other side I was crazy ass kid, all the shit I did I'm amazed that I'm still alive They thought I'd change with a little bit of age But you know I never will Takes too much time to walk a straight line I don't have time to kill Ah-ooh Raise your fist up higher, you fighters Outlaws and outsiders Ah-ooh Some call me a renegade, the enemy Throw your hands up if you feel the same Whoa, living life at the edge Just say what you wanna say or walk away I'll stand tall when there's hell to pay Ain't no power higher We're the outlaws and outsiders Mmm, mmm Some call me a renegade, the enemy Throw your hands up if you feel the same Whoa, living life at the edge Just say what you wanna say or walk away I'll stand tall when there's hell to pay Ain't no power higher We're the outlaws and outsiders Outlaws and outsiders Oh, yeah Mmm, mmm

I took an air rifle Shot a magpie to the ground And it died without a sound Your skin's so pale Against the fallen autumn leaves No-one saw us but the trees Yeah, the trees Those useless trees Produce the air That I am breathing Yeah, the trees Those useless trees They never said That you were leaving I carved your name With a heart just up above Now swollen, distorted Unrecognisable, like our love You smell of leaf mould And the sweetness of decay Or the incense at the funeral procession here today And the trees Those useless trees Produce the air That I am breathing Yeah, the trees Those useless trees They never said That you were leaving Ah Try to shape the world to what you want the world to be Carving your name a thousand times won't bring you back to me Oh, no, I might as well I might as well go tell it to the trees, yeah Oh yeah, the trees Those useless trees Produce the air That I am breathing Yeah, the trees Those useless trees They never said That you were leaving Go and tell it to the trees, yeah Go tell it to the trees, yeah Go tell it to the trees, yeah Go tell it to the trees, yeah Go tell it to the trees, yeah

Climbing trees, like we did when we were children Scaling walls, the walls that took us years to build Climbing trees, haven't much since we were children Shaking limbs tend to end up bent and broken Safe inside the walls we built, we found ourselves a home Higher branches, harder fall Hesitation stops us all Higher branches, harder fall Hesitation stops us all Higher branches, harder fall Hesitation stops us all Higher branches, harder fall Hesitation stops us all Girl, you've never loved Climbing trees, haven't much since we were children Shaking limbs tend to end up bent and broken But heartache pales in comparison to love

There is unrest in the forest There is trouble with the trees For the maples want more sunlight And the oaks ignore their pleas The trouble with the maples And they're quite convinced they're right They say the oaks are just too lofty And they grab up all the light But the oaks can't help their feelings If they like the way they're made And they wonder why the maples Can't be happy in their shade There is trouble in the forest And the creatures all have fled As the maples scream "Oppression" And the oaks just shake their heads So the maples formed a union And demanded equal rights "The oaks are just too greedy We will make them give us light" Now there's no more oak oppression For they passed a noble law And the trees are all kept equal By hatchet, axe, and saw
