about

Steven is in a deep depression. He signals that it's time to travel back to Earth. Steven stands by an open bay window in the ship to contemplate his futile travels. He watches the sights as seen through space.

lyrics

By the Tree
(Brodie Rush) Copyright 2009

By the tree
I am whole in your arms
Even though
I'm holding the knife
I am here
To tell you goodbye
Even though I'm missing you
I am here to say goodnight

There was a time when you laid by my side
I had no fear as I held you tight
I am here
To say it's alright

I understand that you had to go
I didn't know that your candle burned low
Oh my dear
I loved your life

(Wail)

You were limp in my frozen arms
Your eyes were open and waiting
Oh my Boi
You made me smile

I laid you down to embrace the sky
I lit the match and I burned you high
I'm here
To say
Goodnight
