Question 1

The Olive Tree

Accepted Answer

I'm gonna tell you a story 
about an olive tree, Jesus and me 
See, I was sippin’ on wine 
right off the vine, in Italy
Im gonna tell you all about Saint Michael 
and the church in Rome
an Alabama girl, 5000 miles from home...

Jesus spoke to me
underneath the olive tree
I was sippin on wine
thought i could be dying
thought it was the end of time

then I lit a candle at church in Rome
5000 miles from my Alabama home
I said Saint Micheal Saint Michael you saint!
Hurry up and save my soul before it's too late

Underneath the olive tree...

You see it took the angel of death
to make me realize and think to myself
I said self! Hey self! 
What you gonna do with all this time you got left
Hey, what you gonna do with all this time?

Then the answer came to me, rather abruptly 
underneath the olive tree

Light shine 
It’s the only way to free your mind 
You got to let your light shine 
It’s the only way to free your mind
Just keep it heart to heart in hard times

Underneath the olive tree

Light shine 
It’s the only way to free your mind

Just keep it heart to heart in hard times

Question 2

Time

Accepted Answer

It feels like Im running behind
Scribbled down thoughts laugh around my head
humming like a train on time
I count sheep but they leap for life
Im running on a treadmill
will the circle be unbroken

Like a graveyard sitting real sweet 
underneath Alabama pines
Is every thought I ever dreamed to bring to life

Oh time take it easy on me 
time take it easy on me
time your a sea of thieves

hot box a cigarette until it burns your fingertips
the soul of my boot has lost it’s youth 
oh everything I try to forget
I want to change but can’t make up my mind

oh time take it easy on me 
time take it easy on me
time take it easy on me
time your a sea of thieves

Time you’re a sea full of 
wave after wave you’re breaking my brain

Question 4

Fake Friend

Accepted Answer

Your words ring out 
with a hollowing howl 
any thought you ever thought of me 
I can see through now 
And your hand doesn’t feel like a friend
Your hand doesn’t feel like a friend

There once was a time I tried not to shine
So bright for you, But I was being polite
now I leave you in the night...

My fake friend, fake fake friend

I’m not sorry if the truth, is troubling
cuz you were pretty fucking rude 
and really could use, a little humbling
Fake fake friend

Every single shallow word you spoke 
Don’t you wish me well 
This is the end

You never been happy enough

Take all the memories you already forgot 
Cause karma come around, karma come around
In your pretty town
saying how, how, how, do you like me now?

I’m running in circles
trying to find my way out the door 
I keep on jumping these hurtles
before I’m given some more

The room keeps spinning around my head
I can’t seem to get a grip
I’ve taken this walk all by myself
and it’s turned to such a long trip

noises like rattle snakes 
can’t stop the burn
tell me will there ever be a moment of peace 
to satisfy a simple urge

Question 8

Circus

Accepted Answer

My love is a circus 
You oughta know this by now
Any words left unspoken, leave me to choking 
till they come out

I never meant to make you feel 
anything less than real, love from my heart 
But like tattoos, I covered you
with ugly words and scars

Now I know, words hurt the most
So, forgive me love
While I dance with your ghost

We took a left through the canyons
but we climbed every hill
Those mountains were monuments 
and those valleys filled
Who ever knew how far we would fall
The process of progress, The true root of it all

Question 9

Hell of a Mess

Accepted Answer

The devil’s in the kitchen 
cooking up a mess again
When it comes to the cleaning 
there will be a lot to lift
Outside the water’s gonna rise to the doorstep 
Just like the rising sun there is no forgiveness

Oh it’s a hell of a mess I’m in
Lord help me Jesus
Can you get me through this

There’s thundering clouds hanging over our house
I can smell the rain
I can hear the train
Oh it’s a Hell of a Mess I’m in

I feel it in my bones
like the sea is coming after me in my home 
There’s gonna be a flood
Taking everything that I own

I can smell the rain
I can hear the train
I got my back up against a track

I been dancing with the devil
Forgive me Momma
I got myself into trouble

Life is but a game we’re playing
You gamble with your soul at your very wakin'
Find your voice and set it free
Find your voice and set it free

Lord help me Jesus
I’m doubting everything that I know

Water made it’s way to the pillows
A drowning place to lay a head
We rotted out the roots of the willows
God help us both our love is dead
