the first time i saw this song it made me cry

Lyrics:

If the trees are alive 
Then I guess I am too 
Feel the need to survive 
Looking for things to do 
Just to prove that I’m here and I was when I’m gone 
If the trees are alive then I wanna be one

If my soul is a fire 
My body’s a forest
The music is water
The void is a chorus
I hear when it calls me from under the blue
If my soul is a fire I wanna be cool 
All the trees are alive and I wish I were too

All my idols are just 
Two dimensional things
In my head on the wall 
in the light of my screen
And it’s lonely I know but I’m seeing it through
Oh my idol you’re dead and I want to be you

Oh I’m gonna get there someday
I can feel it the horizon drawing near
I wanna live to be
Taller than a sycamore
Burning brighter than a meteor
Dying like a distant star

Oh my love is a ghost and I guess I am too
Dreaming up visions of light breaking through
How it builds and it swells and the climax is you
I will live I will die I will make something new
I will live I will die I will put it to use

This song is silly but its also about a time in my life where I was trying to be upfront with people about being a little shell of a person with a bunch of walls around my heart - hurt people hurt people you know????
