One in the Same

Redeem me and I’ll feed you Care for me and I’ll sow you Plant a tree and let it be Ease your grip and set me free I’m not yours to keep Not yours to use, not yours to bruise I’m yours to lose and soon you’ll slip Into the deep darkness of my creeks Love me and I’ll be your home Be me or be left alone Survive or die with no pumpkin pie No leaves in spring, no big blue skies Together we thrive, apart we die The two of us are tied, bound Together since the beginning of time But I will not call you divine Cause when you’re gone Life will gone on
