The Killing Tree Lyrics

It's getting harder every day

To keep these dark thoughts at bay

It seems the more I look the less I see

I'm feeling deeper unease

Within this quagmire I can't escape

It's eating me

Feeding on my soul

This cursed axis

The cusp or the falter

A smile for the guillotine

The crux at the altar

In the shadow of infinity

In the wasteland of my dignity

I can see in my periphery

It's taking hold of every part of me

A red stain on an endless sea

A debt paid to the killing tree

I've never needed you to see

This corrosion in me

It seems the more I try the more I fail

I feel a black fog encroach

Metastasising and necrotising

It's haunting me

Flowing through my veins

In the shadow of infinity

In the wasteland of my dignity

I can see in my periphery

It's taking hold of every part of me

A red stain on an endless sea

A debt paid to the killing tree

No no there's no return from the killing tree

In the shadow of infinity

In the wasteland of my dignity

I can see in my periphery

It's taking hold of every part of me

A red stain on an endless sea

A debt paid to the killing tree
