Silver Trees Lyrics

Kingsbury Manx Silver Trees

Pinwheels in the snow
No, we didn't see you
That year you kept your shutters closed

Well, I've been sleeping
to your face
and I've been talking to your songs

Every single day
I find a different way
to keep my feet off of the ground

And though I never fought the law
I can lie about it all
And though I never fought the law
I can lie

What you say
and what you mean
are always two completely different things

They love your riddles
and your plans
They say I was funny before I was a man

But I don't remember
I was too young to see
all those things that happened right in front of me

Every single day
I find a different way
to keep my feet off of the ground

Every single day
I find a different way
to seperate my head from my shoulders
