Suicide Trees Songtext
von Otep

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

Obey, obey
Betray, 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 no 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 excrement of my sins)
It's not happening, it can't be happening 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
Here in the suicide trees
Here in the suicide trees

Toil and labor, hate your neighbor
Faith in favor, obey!
Toil and labor, hate your neighbor
Faith in favor, obey!

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 Neighbors!
Hate Your Neighbors!

(The animals scratch at my skin)
(It′s not happening, it's not happening)
