Green Trees
Journey of Healing: Escaping Heartache Amidst Green Trees
Lyrics
Life's a journey of the spirit and soul
Life is a journey of the spirit and soul.
Now you've gone and made mine cold
Someone has made the speaker's life emotionally cold.
And I'm falling
The speaker is falling, possibly into emotional distress.
And I'm worried, that the things people said
Concerns about rumors or comments affecting the person's mindset.
Have gone to your head
The impact of what people said is affecting the person.
And I'm falling
The speaker continues to fall emotionally.
And im gonna get away
Expressing a desire to escape to a safe place.
Somewhere that my thoughts are safe
Seeking a location where the speaker's thoughts can find safety.
I can hear the mountains calling my name
The mountains symbolically call the speaker's name, suggesting a longing for a connection with nature.
I'm out here cut cold and bleeding in the rain
The speaker is enduring emotional pain, represented by being cold and bleeding in the rain.
Drifting down the river to somewhere new
Embarking on a journey, drifting down a river to a new place.
Cause all the green trees seem to keep my mind off of you
Green trees serve as a distraction from thoughts of someone significant.
Can you feel it, the hurting in my heart
The speaker asks if the listener can feel the emotional pain in their heart.
Cause this road was set to spill blood from the start
The path the speaker is on was destined for difficulties from the beginning.
And I didn't say, what I needed to say
Regret for not expressing what needed to be said.
A wall went up and now I can feel the pain
A metaphorical wall has caused emotional pain.
And I'm gonna get away
Expressing a renewed determination to get away to a safe place.
Somewhere that my thoughts are safe
Reiterating the desire for a secure mental space.
I can hear the mountains calling my name
Mountains continue to call, reinforcing the theme of a connection with nature.
I'm out here cut cold and bleeding in the rain
The speaker is still enduring pain in adverse conditions.
Drifting down the river to somewhere new
Continuing the journey down a river to a new destination.
Cause all the green trees seem to keep my mind off of you
Green trees remain a comforting distraction.
And from the clouds in my head I rose
Reflecting on experiences from the speaker's mental clouds.
Just to learn what I already know
Reiterating the process of learning from existing knowledge.
And I'll travel the world through the great unknown
Expressing a willingness to explore the world and the unknown.
Just to learn what I already know
Continuing the journey of learning from what is already known.
And from the clouds in my head I rose
Similar to lines 29-30, reinforcing the theme of learning.
Just to learn what I already know
Reiterating the process of rising from mental clouds and learning.
And I'll travel the world through the great unknown
Continuing the exploration of the great unknown to gain knowledge.
Just to learn what I already know
Repeating the idea of learning from existing knowledge.
I can hear the mountains calling my name
The mountains continue to call, suggesting a persistent desire for connection with nature.
I'm out here cut cold and bleeding in the rain
The speaker is still enduring pain in challenging conditions.
Drifting down the river to somewhere new
Continuing the journey down the river to a new and unfamiliar place.
Cause all the green trees seem to keep my mind off of you
Green trees remain a source of comfort, distracting the mind from someone significant.
