The Fruit and the Tree

[Verse 1] I've been full a long time You don't know what it's like I'm better empty Money and me are worth more When we're spent It won't see past the bright side Of that fortunate son But it's not easy Am I sweating the meds to be full to the neck? Money and me are worth more when we're spent [Chorus] And now it's harder to grieve Since the body's still here And there's a story scares me Have you heard the one about the fruit and tree? [Instrumental Break] [Verse 2] On some former fault-line Stepped on a crack, it's too late I'm just so uneasy Clutching my chest for the backs I might break Am flipping a coin just to tempt all my fates? [Chorus] And now it's harder to grieve Since the body's still here And it gets harder to breathe Every time that you're near And there's a story scares me Have you heard the one about the fruit and tree? Have you heard the one about the fruit and tree? You heard the one about the fruit and tree? [Outro] Money and me are worth more when we're spent Am I sweating the meds to be full to the neck? Money and me are worth more
