Lyrics
You make no sound
As folks gather ‘round,
Like shadow hounds
Eyes seem unsound
As folks gather 'round
And please you aloud

And I now believe that no one asked
About your secret past
The pain to match your strength

And I now believe that no one thought
You had a lonely past
The pain and strengths so vast

From mellow seas,
To houses on wheels,
To slabs in West lands,
Hand in hand
From yellow bills,
To slabs in West lands,
Like bones in your hands

But I see a tree that's standing high among the shrubs
So only one hand may rest its palm upon my cheeks
The only one that I'll need

To know why no one asked
About your secret past
The pain to match your strength

And I now believe that no one thought
You had a lonely past
And pain to match your vein
When it rains

The fact that they not only put so much work into their music, but also touring and making music videos all on their own without a record label really shows you how much Men I Trust cares about their fans and the music they create. They will be in the history books.

"Tree Among Shrubs" by Men I Trust is about introspection and hidden personal pain that others might not see. It uses metaphors like "tree among shrubs" to symbolize the struggle to stand out and be understood despite confusion or surroundings. The song explores how past suffering shapes one’s strength and identity, and how this pain and strength are not always recognized by others.

This track sounds so French, the melody and the soft singing voice.

This music only gives me peace and more reasons to be alive. One of the most valuable bands since the 80s.

"the pain to match your strength" it's the admiration you have for people you love once you learn how they've overcome struggle that makes this line so resonant

Starting a new phase in my life, I can't handle listening to the music I once loved so much. I'm glad I found this after being done with what is now my past, good music for the new days ahead.

loved seeing you guys on this tour; the level of happiness on-stage was palpable.
they have reached what many artists strive for, few achieve, and fewer still manage to hold on to; being happy with who you are and the content you create.
