I Am a Tree
I am a tree
You may see something strong
But I see me as weak
Is this person really me?
Weak, it's overused
Those who aren't strong
Those who cry
Or are beaten, broken and bruised
But what does strong mean?
One who is smart
Or one who lifts cars
To feel like a hero being seen
That's all they want, a hero
That will save them in troubling times
They try to make me that for them
But I feel like an absolute zero
What do they want me to do?
I can't lift them to the sky
I break, fail and fall too easily
Why do they turn to me and not to you?
