Evergreen

Evergreen
Grow to be a Christmas tree
You were close
But you never made the most

Of the change
In the seasons in the snow
What's this for
Trying hard just to get sold

Evergreen
Wanting to be more than seen
With it's leaves
Needles falling with the seeds

Of the plants
That grow up faster in the spring
But you think you'll hold off
Longer than they think

Living for hundreds of years
With nothing else to show
Give oxygen to the friends
That live on down below

And you'll be cut down so quick
As if you'd never grown
When you feel the final hit
You might become a home

And a little family will live there
And they'll call you a little cottage
You'll be able to serve a purpose
Your life wont be meaningless

Evergreen
Grow to be a Christmas tree
You were close
But you never made the most

Of the change
In the seasons in the snow
What's this for
Trying hard just to get sold

Evergreen
Wanting to be more than seen
With it's leaves
Needles falling with the seeds

Of the plants
That grow up faster in the spring
But you think you'll hold off
Longer then they think

Sit in your forest and watch
As your brothers turn to dust
