The song opens up with "I know where you stand, silent in the trees". I could see the song being about someone watching over them but not interjecting that much into this person's life. This brings up the common theme of ancestry in the past books that we have read. Listen to it and see what you think.

The trees, for Paul D especially, evoke a sense of nostalgia. It is not solely good or solely bad, but instead is just natural. Like today, when we were talking about memory and running away from it - this is impossible. Trees remind Paul D of his past, and he will never be able to avoid trees. He should, instead, embrace his past and use to community to overcome his difficult past. It is sad to associate something so beautiful and natural, such as a tree, with something so sad and painful as a hanging. it is something Paul D must overcome, though, if he wishes to continue to enjoy trees.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17694791850522660396noreply@blogger.com
