Kae Morii - Ego Tree

What tree would has grown in our land?
What leaves the tree would be growing?

The tree feels pain which must stand by its self
In rainy days, snowy days, windy days...

Only standing by its self is painful
But the sunshine is not lavish to give the grace

But the ego tree only standing for its self can't know the shadow of its self
In thick, in dark, in cold...

Kae Morii
