Suicide Trees Lyrics

The song Suicide Trees is performed by Otep in the album named House of Secrets in the year 2004 .

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 a*sa*sin
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, 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's not 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 neighbor, hate your neighbor
Scratch at my skin

It's not happening
It's not happening
It's not happening
