.
You were a child,
crawlin' on your knees toward it.
Makin' mama so proud,
but your voice was too loud.
We like to watch you laughing.
You pick the insects off plants.
No time to think of consequences.
Control yourself.
Take only what you need from it.
A family of trees wantin',
To be haunted.
Control yourself.
Take only what you need from it.
A family of trees wantin',
To be haunted.
The water is warm,
but its sending me shivers.
A baby is born,
crying out for attention.
Memories fade,
like looking through a fogged mirror
Decisions to decisions are made and not fought
But I thought,
this wouldn't hurt a lot.
I guess not.
Control yourself.
Take only what you need from it.
A family of trees wantin',
To be haunted.
Control yourself.
Take only what you need from it.
A family of trees wantin',
To be haunted.
Control yourself.
Take only what you need from it.
A family of trees wantin',
To be haunted.
Control yourself.
Take only what you need from it.
A family of trees wantin',
To be haunted.
Control yourself.
Take only what you need from it.
A family of trees wantin',
To be haunted.

I think the song is talking about children growing up to be obese. Also the water is warm but its sending me shivers, it refers to eating feeling great and tasting good, but you know its bad. The rest is kinda straight forward in my mind.

I think trees are a metaphor for family and them wanting to be with others, or be 'haunted' by them. If you look at trees that are slightly moving or blowing, I can see where they get the word haunted. This song is one of the best and it's, well, haunting.

Did you ever be the answer for that part because I didn't get it either?

I think the whole song is about the way people take too much from the planet. The way we, as a species, destroy it without thinking about it. The verse - We like to watch you laughing.
'Pickin' insects off plants.
No time to think of consequences', seems to be about the way we learn how to treat the planet from our parents. If they abuse it, so will we (no time to think of consequences). The chorus seems to say, take only what you need from the earth, control your desires. The line about the trees is directly related to the planet as a whole. The trees want to live and be alive long enough so that when we die, we'll come back and haunt them. It's basically saying that nature, earth, the environment will be around long after we die, so we must leave enough for future generations. For our 'Kids'. -
