bitter fruit hangs under the care of the skeleton tree
|
its roots rest above the settling dust
|
which will rise and fall, only this time will not return
|
|
bitter fruit dead weight, this world must change
|
|
the name on your grave, was it born of you?
|
handcuffed, held down by an iron tattoo,
|
burning a cross in honour of you,
|
blood stained tears run acid yellow
|
|
in the shade of the skeleton tree
|
|
bloodshot eyes blind a motherless child, more dead than alive
|
left drowning for breath, silent screams fill the air
|
with mercy on your lips, death became an angel in your grace
|
|
bitter fruit dead weight, this world must change
|
bitter fruit dead weight, this world must change
|
|
the name on your grave, was it born of you?
|
handcuffed, held down by an iron tattoo,
|
burning a cross in honour of you,
|
blood stained tears run acid yellow
|
|
in the shade of the skeleton tree
|
|
in the scope of time, it was only yesterday ago
|
so lets change, lets change tomorrow
|
|
bitter fruit dead weight
|
bitter fruit dead weight
|
bitter fruit dead weight, the future can't wait..
|
bitter fruit dead weight
|
|
somebodys looking down, somebodys looking down, somebodys looking down
|
