Just like a tree you're standing here in my life.

You throw a shadow, so I don't get burned.
Your leafes cover my head, so I don't get wet.
You're so big, so I don't get blown away.

Just like a tree you consume the minerals and water out of the ground.
Just like a tree, you absorb the energy. 
Just like a tree, I can't pass you without falling over your roots.

And just like a tree.
You don't talk.
You don't show emotions.
You don't touch me.

And yet.. I am sitting under your crown.
Being protected.
Being isolated.
Being unable to be touched.
