    Climbing trees, like we did when we were children.
    Scaling walls, the walls that took us years to build.
    Climbing trees, haven't much since we were children.
    Shaking limbs, tend to end up bent and broken.
    Safe inside, the walls we built we found ourselves a home.
    Higher branches, harder fall.
    Hesitation stops us all
    Higher branches, harder fall.
    Hesitation stops us all.
    Higher branches, harder fall.
    Hesitation stops us all.
    Higher branches, harder fall.
    (Oh you'll never know)
    Hesitation stops us all.
    Oh you'll never know.
    Oh you'll never know.
    Oh you'll never know.
    Climbing trees.
    Haven't much since we were children.
    Shaking limbs, tend to end up bent and broken.
    But heartache,
    Pales in comparison to love.

    I just realized that "shaking limbs tend to end up bent and broken" could apply to either tree limbs or human arms and legs. Kind of obvious, I guess, but the wording lets the double meaning carry really well.

      I actually thought shaking limbs reffered to their limbs, and it's shaking cuz they're of old age.
      Paired with "CLIMBING trees, haven't much since we were CHILDREN"

      They could also be referring to shaking hands in an agreement with someone. The agreement could then be betrayed and their trust is now "bent and broken".

    Climbing trees, the higher you get, makes you seek more safety the higher the risk of hurting yourself gets if you were to feel, but the higher you get the less of these safeties exist. Eventually you break/quit and go back down. In other cases you find a nice spot to be safe/sit and there you stay. But sometimes even though there is great risk, you have to keep going, sometimes because you have come too far to quit, sometimes because going down is impossible, and sometimes because going down now by choice would hurt just as much as falling from that height accidentally. You’re limbs are shaking, you’re heart is beating, but you keep going for that exact reason.

    this song has been such a comfort to me, especially recently with how my mental health is deteriorating ever-so-slowly but surely.
    this reminds me that there's things in life that makes it worth fighting.
    the birds outside my window. the sky. the bugs going about their day as if i'm not even there.
    the trees.
    the fleeting moments of contentment.

  • @hahano6706
    @hahano6706 6 років тому +42

    I think this song is about breaking up with someone because how it talks about tree limbs breaking and then later it says "Higher branches harder fall" probably talking about getting really close to someone romantically then them breaking up with you and then getting really sad. Then at the end of the song talking about heartache

    • @John-bg3mm
      @John-bg3mm 6 років тому +9

      Higher branches, harder fall would likely refer to the more close you allow yourself to get to someone, as in the more that you allow yourself to love them, the harder it hurts if/when that relationship breaks off. So climbing higher is to have deeper feelings.
      This song seems to have a cynical or fearful way to look at allowing yourself to love someone. It is almost as if they are hesitant to actually give their heart away. But I love how it has somewhat of a positive or hopeful twist at the end... "But heartache pales in comparison to love." It is as if the choice is made even with all of the fear and hesitation.

    • @AluraAlua
      @AluraAlua Рік тому +1

      I see it more as advice. They know the reasons why we all hesitate and they list out the things we tell ourselves that stops us from making any sort of step towards making connections. They then make their point very short and sweet at the end, "You'll never know" "[even though we hesitate and fear like in the lyrics before], heartache pales in comparison to love."
      Kids are adventurous. They know they can get hurt and even often do, but that doesn't stop them from climbing trees anyway. Somewhere along the way, we lose that bravery and learn to hesitate for fear of being hurt. Like broken limbs, a broken heart can be mended by time. Love and the memories created by climbing the trees anyway are lasting and worth the risk and pain before.

    ...dos filhos de Israel." "Pela fé o Mar Vermelho se abriu." "Pela fé as muralhas de Jericó caíram." "Pela fé a prostituta Raabe foi salva." "E que mais direi? O tempo me faltaria para falar de Gideão, Baraque, Sansão, Jefté, Davi, Samuel e dos profetas." Mas todos esses foram homens de fé.
    Outros mencionados nas Escrituras fizeram algo, mas Deus não os aceitou. Homens se humilharam e ainda assim Deus não os salvou. Acabe fez isso e mesmo assim seus pecados nunca foram perdoados . Homens se arrependeram e ainda assim não foram salvos, porque o arrependimento deles estava errado. Judas se arrependeu, enforcou - se e não foi salvo.
    Homens comfessaram seus pecados e não foram salvos. Saul fez isso. Ele disse a Davi: "Pequei contra ti, meu filho Davi". E mesmo assim ele continuou como antes. Multidões confessaram o nome de Cristo e fizeram coisas maravilhosas, e ainda assim nunca foram agradáveis a Deus, por essa simples razão de que não tinham fé.
    E se não há ninguém mencionados nas Escrituras, que é a história de milhares de anos, não é provável que nos outros dois mil anos da história do mundo tenha havido alguém, quando não houve nenhum durante os primeiros quatro mil.
    *[página 17]*
    *1.* Mas o próximo argumento é que a fé é a graça de se curvar e nada pode fazer um homem se curvar sem fé. Agora, a menos que o homem se curve, seu sacrifício não pode ser aceito. Os anjos sabem disso. Quando eles louvam a Deus, eles fazem isso velando seus rostos com asas. Os redimidos sabem disso. Quando eles louvam a Deus, lançam suas coroas aos pés dele.
    Agora, um homem que não tem fé prova que ele não pode se curvar. Pois ele não tem fé por essa razão, porque ele é muito orgulhoso para acreditar. Ele declara que não vai submeter seu intelecto, ele não se tornará uma criança e acreditará humildemente no que Deus lhe diz para acreditar. Ele é muito orgulhoso e não pode entrar no céu, porque a porta do céu é tão baixa que ninguém pode entrar por ela amenos que abaixem suas cabeças. Nunca houve um homem que pudesse entrar na salvação ereto.
    Devemos ir a Cristo de joelhos. Pois embora Ele seja uma porta grande o suficiente para o maior pecador entrar, Ele é uma porta tão baixa que os homens devem se curvar se quiserem ser salvos. Portanto, é necessário ter fé, pois a falta de fé é uma evidência certa da ausência de humildade.
    *[página 18]*
    *2.* Mas agora por outras razões. A fé é necessária para a salvação, porque nos é dito nas Escrituras que as obras não podem salvar. Para contar uma história muito familiar, e até mesmo os mais pobres não podem entender mal o que digo - um ministro estava ...
    *[página 19]*
    ... indo pregar um dia. Ele subiu uma colina em seu caminho. Abaixo dele estavam as vilas, adormecidas em sua beleza, com os campos de trigo imóveis sob a luz do sol.
    Mas ele não olhou para eles, pois sua atenção foi capturada por uma mulher parada em sua porta, que, ao vê-lo, se aproximou dele com a maior ansiedade e disse: "Oh, senhor, você tem alguma chave com você? Eu quebrei a chave das minhas gavetas e há algumas coisas que eu preciso pegar imediatamente." Disse ele: "Eu não tenho chaves." Ela ficou desapontada, esperando que todo mundo tivesse algumas chaves.
    "Mas suponha", disse ele, "que eu tivesse algumas chaves, elas podem não se encaixar na sua fechadura e, portanto, você não poderia obter os artigos que deseja. Mas não se preocupe, espere até que alguém mais apareça ". Mas, disse ele, desejando aproveitar a ocasião, "você já ouviu falar da chave do céu?" "Ah, sim", disse ela, "eu vivi o suficiente e fui à igreja o suficiente para saber que se trabalharmos duro, ganharmos nosso pão com o suor do nosso rosto, agirmos bem com nossos vizinhos e nos comportamos, como o catecismo diz, humildemente e reverentemente com todos os nossos superiores, e se fizermos nosso dever na posição de vida em que Deus nos colocou, e rezarmos regularmente, seremos salvos."
    *[página 20]*
    "Ah!" disse, "minha boa mulher, essa é uma chave quebrada, pois você quebrou os mandamentos, você não cumpriu todos os seus deveres. É uma boa chave, mas você a quebrou." "Por favor, senhor ", disse ela, acreditando que ele entendia o assunto e parecendo assustada, "o que eu deixei de fora?" "Bem", disse ele, "a coisa mais importante, o sangue de Jesus Cristo. Você não sabe que é dito que a chave do céu está em Seu cinto. Ele abre e ninguém fecha. Ele fecha e ninguém abre."
