The Hanging Tree

(album: Starlight And Ash - 2022)

Living with the pictures in my head
(Sometimes we forget)
This place will hold for me what cannot be said
(Sometimes we regret)

Where only my hallowed footstep dared to tread
(Sometimes we forget)
Now times indifference rushes to bury them
(Sometimes we regret)

So slowly corroding aged with time
This places serenity a time lapse lie
I'm inching slowly
I'm out my mind
And the peace within me is a lie by design

Distorted memories and pictures
(Sometimes we forget)
These places they will remember us
(Sometimes we regret)

Infused deep with all our pain
(Sometimes we forget)
Somewhere forever pieces of us remain
(Sometimes we regret)

So slowly corroding aged with time
This places serenity a time lapse lie
I'm inching slowly
I'm out my mind
And the peace within me is a lie by design

And I, I surrender
I take back all I owe
And can you tell me where time goes
As it flies away from me?

Living with the pictures in my head
(Sometimes we forget)
This place will hold for me what cannot be said
(Sometimes we regret)

Distorted memories and pictures
(Sometimes we forget)
These places they will remember us
(Sometimes we regret)

Hidden in plain view secrecy
(Sometimes we forget)
This place is haunted if you want it to be
