[Verse 1]
If a tree falls down
Way past the last dirt road
Sap on its hands
Rings like a barcode
Branches punch the air
Like it’s picking a fight
But the moss just shrugs
Swallowing the light
[Chorus]
If a tree falls
And nobody turns their head
Does it scream or just accept
What gravity said?
If a heart breaks
And not a single soul’s around
Is the silence
Any less a sound?
[Verse 2]
I’ve been shouting names
Into dead phone screens
Blue glow on my face
Ghosts in the machine
You said
"Hit me up"
Then you hit the brakes
Guess some echoes die
Before they’re ever made
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Maybe it’s shaking the dirt
Maybe it’s splitting the sky
Maybe it’s loud as thunder
We just walk on by
If I fall right here
On this empty ground
Am I nothing but
An unheard sound?
[Chorus]
