Apple Tree

[Verse 1] All of my life I've been hunting I've been a girl, I've been a boy Digging my feet into the ground like an apple tree Wanting to live with a purpose Skin is a word, love is not a sin People are bad, people are good Just like the moon is a stone But it's a star when it's dark and now she's hiding [Pre-Chorus] If you've seen what a heart is, you've seen its color If I ever knew how we could guide it I would take care of its children, become their mother If I ever knew how we could hide it, hide it (Ah-ah) [Chorus] Let her save the world, she is just a girl Let him save them all, he is just a boy Let her save the world, she is just a girl Let him save them all, he is just a boy [Verse 2] Hunger is quiet if you do it right Hunter is loud and predictable, scaring away every prey So they're gone before the hunter arrives Would you be kind and put away your sword? You cannot cut away what we've got You cannot kill what we are We are not here in physical form [Pre-Chorus 2] You've seen where the knife is, its dark location If I ever knew how we could guide it I will cut into our anger, make pure emotion If I ever knew how we could hide it, hide it (Ah-ah) [Chorus] Let her save the world, she is just a girl Let him save them all, he is just a boy Let her save the world, she is just a girl Let him save them all, he is just a boy [Bridge] Can we carry the weight of mortality? (Oh, oh) The explosions around you is your symphony [Chorus] (Ah, ah) Let her save the world, she is just a girl (Oh, oh) Let him save them all, he is just a boy (Ah, ah) Let her save the world, she is just a girl (Oh, oh) Let him save them all, he is just a boy
