Backyard Tree Lyrics

Boy Rex Backyard Tree

Gold's pouring through the leaves
At the end of the summer of the backyard tree
Gone are the mountains
And the flowered days of spring
I'm waiting for the fall air
Then the snow melt when the ground's bare
So I can have some peace of mind
That I made it out alive

I've never felt so scared
Oh, it's been a year
I used to be a lion
And I roared so loud
Now my teeth are filed down
But that's alright
I got a taste of mortal blood
And I lost my footing, I lost my guts
It's a sense of definition
This curse of better vision
I've never felt so scared
Oh, it's been a year
