Tree of Light - Original

Name carved in the trunk At the root of a tree like the door of a home And that home is in me Still I hear it rise Under all my fear Something up in the skies But I choose to stay here Tree of Light Letting it bleed Tree of Light Shading a need Tree of Light Want to go home But I'm staying tonight Tree of Light I carried my shadows Like stones in a coat cold in my pocket Words on a note Still I feel it fall From up above my head Something under it all Is alive, never dead If it ever falls apart Let it fall up to you If we break into half We have half left to do Tree of Light Letting it bleed Tree of Light Shading a need Tree of Light Want to go home But I'm staying tonight Tree of Light
