Look Alive - The Killing Tree

I hold you and I am fearless

I touch you and I’m not afraid

I see you and I’m overcome

With feeling I can’t explain

Come say that to my face

And I’ll rip out your fucking tongue

I reckon you you don’t know my name

Take it for granted while the blind

Still dream in colors they’ve not yet seen

You are a deadline I can’t make

Better late then never I always say

The last of the romantic

Take this for granted while the blind

Still dream in colors they’ve not yet seen

And scrawl their thoughts

On pens that ran out of ink

No one to blame but myself (x2)

I see your face in the sky

Someday I’ll put this behind

I’m getting on with my life

I tried to tell you everything

But my voice is too loud

I tried to hold you close to me

But my claws are too sharp

I’ve seen that dead look before

Too paralyzed to move

Don’t try to hold me back

'Cuz you’re so afraid to lose

The same thing that keeps me alive

Is the same one I’ll gladly bite

(tell me) That your sorry

(tell me) That you love me

(tell me) That you’ll be here now

While I go blind

Still dream in colors they’ve not yet seen

And scrawl their thoughts

On pens that ran out of ink

I see your face in the sky

Someday I’ll put this behind

I’m getting on with my life

I tried to tell you everything

But my voice is too loud

I tried to hold you close to me

But my claws are too sharp

But I tried

I see your face in the sky

Someday I’ll put this behind

(I tried to tell you everything but my voice is too loud)

I’m getting on with my life

And they tell me to look alive
