Tree

I'm, I'm just a tree
Deceased but still standing
Leafless and grey

I reach for the sky
A skeletal remain
Just waiting here to fall

Or someone to walk by and see
That I am no longer me
Split me in half

Forget the roots that grew me
Just leave them in the ground
Cause I need them no more

Now there's nothing I can do
This is peaceful, now
Now there's nothing I can do
Death is peaceful now

Am I a danger
To all the others?
Would it be better
If they just took me down?

I don't know
I don't know
I don't know
