They say, I'm just like you
They say, in the worst way
They say, don't let it hold you back
But I can't find the connection
(I can't find the connection)
The apple fell too far from the tree
(Too far)
I chop you down and I feel every swing
(Everything)
These roots run deep
(You are)
This forest is evergreen
(You are)
I called up my father
I don't mean to bother
I've never been farther from you
And your daughter, my sister
I miss her, I wish I could tell her
I'm sorry, I love you
You say, I've got trust issues
I say, that's just scar tissue
My pain made me medicate
With chemicals and affection
I've got quite a collection
A forest fire had to burn it away
(Let it burn)
As pine cones open up to the flames
(Like a rebirth)
These wounds run deep
(These scars)
This forest is evergreen
(You are)
I called up my father
I don't mean to bother
I've never been farther from you
And your daughter, my sister
I miss her, I wish I could tell her
I'm sorry, I love you
