These pines are not the ones that I'm used to
They won't carry me home when I cry
Am I too far gone to recover
Or can I turn if I try?

Should I trade my soul for another
Learn not to complain anymore
Should I stay and pretend that I'm happy
Like so many times before?

Yeah, these pines are not mine
Oh, they don't smell so sweet like the ones in my mind
And I search the needles 'til I run out of time
But I don't see you in these pines

Do I stumble or falter my words
When I'm saying everything is all right?
I'm not one to release my depression
These trees bring it out every night

Well, I don't talk 'cos I'm trying to listen
To the wind take me home through these leaves
But it's quiet and I don't hear nothing
