The snow has fallen
The leaves have followed
The temperature has dropped
The people have crowdedSearching for a tree
The people look hard
Every little detail
It all countsThe size of this one, too big
The size of this one, too small
The shape of this one, too weird
The shape of this one, too straightOn the evergreen
The lights hang
On the fir and pine
The ornaments hangWho will they pick?
Do they have enough space?
After all I've grown
They ignore meIn the end, cut down
Razor sharp, a chainsaw
Branches and needles, shaken off
The base of my trunk, split apart
