The Tree

At the dawn of time in a golden shine A gentle hand reached down deep into the ground To the heavens we call for the rain to fall From the earth we rise towards the open skies From the city they came with their chainsaws drawn In the forest green there would be a murder scene One by one they cut us down Like wounded soldiers falling to the ground Now thinking we were dead They severed our bodies from our heads I know they never see the beauty in a tree Just keep on cutting down till there will be no more Naked to the core, cross the open land Every tree will fall to man Now I m waking up but where s the sky above Don t hear no sound of birds, still alive cause I hurt In this empty room where no flowers bloom I have met my down, I have been entombed Once a peaceful tree, they have made a chair of me From my skin and flesh they have built a tool of death Now they bring him near, I can taste the smell of fear In my lap of death, it s my turn to sear the flesh I know they never see the beauty in a tree Just keep on cutting down till there will be no more Naked to the core, cross the open land Every tree will fall to man I cannot believe what they ve done to me I cannot escape my unlucky fate I cannot forgive what they make me live I will not forget, I survive on hate I know they never see the beauty in a tree Just keep on cutting down, the slaughter never stops Can t seem to get enough, just keep on cutting down Till there will be no more, naked to the core Across the open land, every tree will fall to man I cannot believe what they ve done to me I cannot escape my unlucky fate I cannot forgive what they make me live I will not forget, I survive on hate I cannot believe what they ve done to me I cannot escape my unlucky fate I cannot forgive what they make me live I will not forget, cause I survive on hate, on hate
