YOU WONT LAST VERY LONG LIKE MODERN MAN LIFE SPAN

i listened to his old stuff before he went mainstream. i didn’t know this was oliver tree until i heard one of his mainstream songs and thought it sounded familiar. this is why ill always have a soft spot for him even if a lot of people hate him.

In the twilight of the morning, where the clocks all yawn,
They drag their weary shadows through a never-ending dawn.
Self-made misery, a cloud that never lifts,
Living every single day like Monday’s endless shifts.

Under leaden skies, they trudge along,
Every step a burden, every hope long gone.
Counting down the hours till the dusk returns,
Lost in the cycle of the same old churn.

Faces in the mirror, all look the same,
Echoes of their dreams, just whispers in the rain.
Holding onto memories that fade away,
Living in the twilight of another wasted day.

Stuck in the grayscale, where the sun won’t rise,
Every breath we take feels like a compromise.
Wading through the gloom, with no end in sight,
We’re forever chasing shadows in the endless night.

Every road they walk leads to the same dead end,
Every fleeting joy, just another trend.
Caught in the loop, where the darkness thrives,
Forever in the shadow of their nine-to-five lives.

In a world on fire, where the oceans rise,
Counting down the days till the final demise.
Boomers left the wreckage, and we bear the scars,
Dreaming of revenge under fading stars.

Stuck in the grayscale, where the sun won’t rise,
Every breath we take feels like a compromise.
Wading through the gloom, with no end in sight,
We’re forever chasing shadows in the endless night.

And if the sun should rise, they’d never know,
Lost in the haze of their own shadow.
Wishing for a change that never comes near,
Trapped in the cycle of their own worst fear.

Too many people on this crowded sphere,
No room for hope, just a growing fear.
Breathing out carbon, every sigh a sin,
Wondering if there's any way to begin.

So we lie down silent, in the ashes grey,
Hoping that the earth might heal one day.
Breathing less deeply, counting down the cost,
In a world where all the dreams seem lost.

Stuck in the grayscale, where the sun won’t rise,
Every breath we take feels like a compromise.
Wading through the gloom, with no end in sight,
We’re forever chasing shadows in the endless night.

Staring at screens while the world decays,
Talking big change but lost in the maze.
Hands too soft to grip the plow,
Wondering why it all falls down now.

Blaming the past for the mess we’re in,
But doing nothing more than a virtue grin.
Talking 'bout justice from a cushy seat,
While the world burns beneath our feet.

Stuck in the grayscale, where the sun won’t rise,
Every breath we take feels like a compromise.
Wading through the gloom, with no end in sight,
We’re forever chasing shadows in the endless night.

But it's all on us, this tangled fate,
Too blind to act, too quick to hate.
The planet will heal when we’re long gone,
Nature’s better off when the humans are done.

Tree - Splitting Branches

FLESH (BONUS)

Cover art by Zane Prater

Track is part of the album Splitting Branches, 17th of February, 2013

Originally posted on January 5th, 2012

Original description read as follows:
This is Separation. This is me dealing with the end, while acknowledging the beginning of something beautiful. This is the after math of a revival that never worked out. This is Separation.

Lyrics:

Don't tell me to go home, staying solo
until the sun sways out of the sky.
Time seems to move so slow, just leave me alone though
It's easier if we don't try.
Separation can hurt though, it's like the end of a circle
there's not an easy way to end it in site.
We both thought it could work though, but it just got worse so
I said it's easier if we don't try.

Chorus
Because I'll be back when your gone
& I know that, I'll be back when your gone.
It moves me, it moves me, it moves me away
It moves me, it moves me, day after day.
Because I'll be back when your gone
& I know that, I'll be back when your gone
I'll be back, I'll be back, I'll be back when your gone.

Oliver Tree "Warrior"

Oliver Tree "This Is Separation"

Splitting Branches was Oliver Tree’s first album after (somewhat) retiring the name Kryph, now going under the name Tree. The album was self-released and featured some of Oliver Tree’s childhood friends like Shelf Nunny and also then girlfriend Kirsten Rosenberg.

I don't own any of these songs.

tree (oliver tree) - an apology

From a carpet in a shit house
Taste the whole night 
in the back of my mouth 
I'm a good time
Having a good time

I'm still raging no one’s listening 
Drag my body to the kitchen 
Not the first time

I'm gonna crash here if it's cool

How’d I end up with my ass out
Will you fuck me til I pass out
Having a good time 
Let's have a good time 

Brought a blanket to the party
Puddle pillow of bacardi
Not the last time

I'm gonna crash here if it's cool

Crash Here If It's Cool
