All alone in an evil dream I see myself up high
And it's me over you with my arms spread open wide
I try to run from the place I know that I can be set free
Come away, come away, there's a sweet voice calling me
To the killing tree
I look around at all the faces who are passing me
And I run try to run with nails in my feet
All the time I was building castles on a sandy beach
Leading you, leading you, to a place I'd never been
To the killing tree
I know what you're asking me and I don't wanna give
Cos it's safe and I know cos I've been here all these years
All the precious pain I hold without it there is fear
And I'm afraid when you say that you'll get me out of here
To the killing tree
Come away to a place of healing
