Suicide Trees
I spent my
whole life...
...In love with despair
Kept my lungs full
With the breath of their...
...Mute atmosphere
I became
What I hate
And thus
Shall I remain
To give birth to a
Mighty assassin
Armed with a weapon of words?
To defy the lies
To never compromise?
No.
Today...
...My name
is pain.
I stood
Beyond the world
Whispering secret syllables in the...
...Eyeless dark
Dancing wildly
Round and round on the rotting ground
Surrounded by the dead dusts of hell
This is how I delete myself
And this is how I corrupt
Everyone else
To obey
Obey
Betray
You are not unique!
You do not need to think!
Take it!
(Take it)
(I will, I will, I will...)
You succumb
So nicely...
Like an insect staring back
Like a dying dove
My love
So here we are again
The sheets are stained and bloodied
The animals scratch at my skin
Here we are again
My face is scraped and bloodied
I've nothing left to give...
I wasn't there.
I'm not involved.
I'm innocent.
It's not my fault.
I wasn't there, I'm not involved, I'm innocent, It's not my fault.
I wasn't there, I'm not involved, I'm innocent, It's not my fault.
Here in the suicide trees
Here in the suicide trees
(No, bloody, bloody, bloody
Murder
Among the excitement of my sins
it’s not happening)
So here we are again
In secret ceremonies
Changing shape, amen
Here we are again
Pretending not to notice
The illness sneaking in...
I wasn't there.
I'm not involved.
I'm innocent.
It's not my fault.
I wasn't there, I'm not involved, I'm innocent, It's not my fault.
I wasn't there, I'm not involved, I'm innocent, It's not my fault.
(I wasn't there, I'm not involved, I'm innocent, It's not my fault.)
Here in the suicide trees
Here in the suicide trees
Toil and labour, hate your neighbour, faith in favour, obey
Toil and labour, hate your neighbour, faith in favour, obey
Obey!!!
Here I do as I please, obey, here in the suicide trees, obey
Here I do as I please, obey, here in the suicide trees, obey
Hate your neighbour
Hate your neighbour
The animals scratch at my skin
It's not happening
