Willow

I wake up in the morning dew and lather in the light sweeter than a honey dew I rise up from the night take me to my aging tree my warrior of life ask him what it means to me to wake up by your side I found it in my garden stones that's where I left my shoes strong enough to crack them bones but can never be abused ponder on the riddle tomes change them and confuse I seek out the metronome so I never get confused when the rose will shed its thorns to be naked to the truth a different kind of love is born what does that mean to you?

Verse 4 is speaking of our struggles to understand this life and also how people tend to change and confuse what is written. Morals and philosophies, right, wrong. The seeking of the metronome is speaking of my solace in music. My philosophy, essentially.
