Weeping willow Weeping willow
Tell me, are your branches wetter than my pillow?
Tell me who you truly weep for
A lover or a person you abhor.

Weeping willow looking so mellow.
Do you bow with pity for the people below
Or is it your own guilt and sorrow?
My shoulder is wide. Do you want to borrow?

Weeping willow Weeping willow
Do you ever wish to shed a kilo?
Your bark has turned so hard and brown.
Do you wish to hide it or wear it like a crown?

Weeping willow, an eerie haven
Abode for the flesh-eating raven.
If I take a shade, would you swallow me whole,
If death was my motive, my sole goal?

Weeping willow Weeping willow
Why do you shed your leaves when they turn yellow?
Would you hug me like you hug your tissues?
If I tell you my issues, would you lend me a tissue?

Weeping willow, an abode of wisdom.
Will you grant me a place in your kingdom?
I will breathe out oxygen to fit in.
I will forever bow in shame for all my sins.

Weeping willow Weeping willow
Tell me, are your branches wetter than my pillow?
Tell me who you truly weep for
A lover or a person you abhor.
