we scratched our names
in that oak tree
'cause i loved you
and you loved me
a jagged little heart so the whole town knew it
carved into the bark with an arrow through it
well
i came out here to see it one more time
and i got my chainsaw
oh
you know it's got to go
it's such a shame y'all
but i ain't gonna be happy 'til those names fall
and i'm sittin' on a stump
love is shady
love is tragic
it's hard to bury the hatchet
holdin' a chainsaw
i guess all those years
they don't mean a thing
now i can't wait
to count those rings
nothing left of us but dust and splinters
a big pile of wood to keep me warm through the winter
'cause i
i don't have you
but i got my chainsaw
oh
you know it's got to go
it's such a shame y'all
but i ain't gonna be happy 'til those names fall
and i'm sittin' on a stump
love is shady
love is tragic
it's hard to bury the hatchet
holdin' a chainsaw
just holding a little chainsaw
i remember what you said that night
that you would love me for the rest of your life
we wrote forever" with a pocket knife
