Ent

With a crooked trunk, striving to grow

Flung from heaven to the wood below

My crooked branches, hands of thorns bear no fruit

Black vines and vultures (with saw-toothed mouths)

Following me to the valley, you said you'd be there

But you're not, so where are you now?

Did you know I'd forfeit my body when you bled to win the crown for me?

So hurl me down

I only speak when you pull off my leaves

Tied to the ground, bleeding and screaming;

I'm roots from a seed

Ropes growing down out of my feet;

To this prison I'm bound

My savior! My savior!

"Oh, depart from me!"

'Cause I know I've built this anchor

And I tied it to my neck

There are boards over my eyes

And there's no light in the cracks

I don't know my own name, in You I am new

"Depart from me; I never knew you."

"Depart from me; I never knew you."

"Depart from me; I never knew you."

"Depart from me; I never knew you."

"Depart from me; I never knew you."
