The story behind the song
In this song, I stick it to the man (Robert Frost), and give a soul-influenced lamentation about the fate of mankind. Thanks to Gabe for his hard work mixing this. -micah
Lyrics
You gave me life, you gave me hope
You gave me breath so I can cope
You gave me love, you gave me power
You gave me flame from the nearest star
Wherever you are - There you are
I gave myself away
I gave my wonderment
I gave my regalness
For experience
I'm gonna work this ground
I'm gonna run it dry
I'm gonna till the earth
For the day I died
Two trees diverged in a road
I took the ones that I didn't know
Everyone followed me down that road
And that made all the difference
You came and tempted me
Discerning my design
I threw myself away
For my eager eyes
I walk this road alone
Ten thousand in my tracks
A tree to take us here
A tree to take us back
Two trees diverged in a road
I took the ones that I didn't know
Everyone followed me down that road
And that made all the difference
