The Evil Tree Lyrics

The evil tree inside of me is twisting and gripping me

Physically and mentally, it will not let me be

And I don't wanna do what it tells me to do

I don't wanna act out the pain it causes on you

The roots they tangle in my brain, making me insane

All the people that were lost

Died here in vain

It mocks with limbs, reaching high to the heavens

But it left me here alone, a hollow, the revenant

Along an earthly path, I follow, I guide

Now realizing where we go when we die

Passing through the cemetery up on the hill

The evil tree manipulates enacting its will

Try to escape it whatever you do

Or soon its roots will be entangling you

The evil tree is inside of me

It sees all the evils that I see

Its roots are tangled in my soul

Let me go, just let me go

I got vines... creeping up to my brain

Twisting my thoughts, shredding my veins

I can't think, because they keep growing

Trying to make me forget everything, I be knowing

It ain't going, the way that I want

I wanna make it stop, but I don't

I can't control, the darkness inside

And all the life I've collected just died

I'm soulless, buried deep in the earth

I feel what it feels, and I know how it hurts

For what it's worth, I wish I could take it back

Maybe my heart would beat again, instead of turning black

Cold, and I'm down in this hole

Make the evil tree, release my soul

Or turn and run away, never return again

Or you'll be wrapped in despair, like a tourniquet

The evil tree is inside of me

It sees all the evils that I see

Its roots are tangled in my soul

Let me go, just let me go

The evil tree is inside of me

It sees all the evils that I see

Its roots are tangled in my soul

Let me go, just let me go
