Silver Tree

(album: Behind The Black Veil - 2015)

I'm determined to end this madness and horror before my soul turns hollow
If there is something left to save, I know it won't be the same
A lingering memory lies in the forest that we used to keep as our fortress
We carved our names and our hearts on the bark of that silver tree

The cradle of evil, a seed of deception
You're gonna fail now, you won't rule me!
You're gonna fail now, I take down your halo
I take down your halo!

You have been here from childhood to present
But your thought, the mind, and your intent was to get our names carved on your bark
And to give us your evil mark
You poisoned the love that flourished in our hearts, ripping our minds apart
He was the first one on our way, I was a puppet in your play

You were the most beautiful tree in the forest
But I didn't see then your heart was rotten…

The Silver Tree – cradle of evil, a seed of deception
You're gonna fail now, you won't rule me!
You're gonna fail now, I take down your halo
I take down your halo!

You, it was you in disguise that day
Stealing the most precious thing, stealing my love, my life
You, you were the temptress on my wedding day!
And with your evil roots you tied him down and wanted to take my soul

The Silver Tree – cradle of evil, a seed of deception
You're gonna fail now, you won't rule me!
You're gonna fail now, I take down your halo
I take down your halo
