Run around the living tree with my lover standing at my feet
Your branches mean so much to me but the leaves taste oh so sweet
Run around the living tree i help become what you made of me
You can root me down now set me free
But I'm not what you should be
Can't remember last I saw you walked through that door
Can't remember how we got this blood on the floor oh baby
Thinking i would let you try and settle the score
But in might hurt me now i didn't feel before
(Hey) think i lost my mind at speed its head full of stones
(Hey) swear i got home late last night you werent alone oh baby
(Hey) thinking on the lies i used to build myself a home
Its nights like these that tare the stitches that id sown
Run around the living tree with my lover standing at my feet
His branches mean so much to me but the leaves taste oh so sweet
Run around the living tree i help become what you made of me
You can root me down now set me free
But I'm not what you should be
(Hey) spend my nights so bored and restless no reason why
(Hey) seems i left my youth and time you left her out to dry oh darling
(Hey) don't try to hold me down oh i just scream and cry
And now that freedom that i stolen will get by
Will my eyes stop rolling back my head hits the floor
Know that i can't try to see your face anymore oh darling
Thinking if the clock turned back please id be at your door
But now its done my lesson learned so ends the war
Run around the living tree with my lover standing at my feet
Your branches mean so much to me but the leaves taste oh so sweet
Run around the living tree i help become what you made of me
You can root me down now set me free
But I'm not what you should be
Run around the living tree with my lover standing at my feet
You can root me down now set me free
But I'm not what you should be
