Won't you wait for the old oak to break
Its been calling the ground for days
Won't you lie where the grass did die
Its been calling your age for miles
Won't he wait for the old oak to break
Its been calling the ground for days
Aeching oak, oh you cracked and then you croaked
Swallowed by the hollow dreams you told
Won't you lay as the sun does fade
Its been burning you down for days
