Way Past Due

Nobody wants to be alone
A sprout in the shade
Underneath friends that have grown
What does it feel like up above?
With the sunlight beating down
A canopy of love

I'll just keep shaking that tree
Till something falls down for me
Not much else that I can do
Try to shake something loose

Cause I'm way past due
For something I could use
Just tell me when I should let go
Else I'll never know

Sometimes the wind picks up below
It's hard when there's no one
To shield from the cold
Tired and alone I look up
Do you remember me,
Friends I have loved?

Guess I'll just keep shaking that tree
Till something falls down for me
Not much else that I can do
Try to pull up my roots

Cause I'm way past due
For something I could use
Just tell me when I should let go
Else I'll never know

I know this much is true
That everyone feels this too
If they can all help themselves
I can climb out of hell

Cause I'm way past due
For something I could use
Just tell me when I should let go
Else I'll never know
