The story of the lonely tree

Growing on the hills on doom
Thoughts of fear start to bloom
Will today be the day,
Is everything going to change?
One by one, tree by tree
Goodbye to my family.
Now the day is almost gone
In my home all alone
Knowing that something's wrong.
From what I see in front of me,
This is the start of misery
"They wouldn't do that, surely?"
as the golden leaves fall on me
Before you know it, the world is spinning,
now fear is filling up my body,
water spilling down my eyes,
Guess it's time to say goodbye.
