"The Axe Forgets, The Tree Remembers" lyrics
You brought me down
So now it's come to this
A nightmare replaying over and over again
We've suffered enough
Barely breathing, hearts depleted
Torn in two
A marriage, a family all because of you
Make your bed
So you can restlessly slumber alone with the dead
I've been waiting
Contemplating
Reality has burdened us with this
The Axe forgets, the Tree remembers
Each swing still sings your name
I won't forget to curse your name
This song remains the same
Over and over and over again
Broken down to the bone
I've shaken you loose from our home
Silence is golden and has been for years
Once where love stood has now been replaced by my one true fear
I see your face in the mirror
Where you've been waiting
Contemplating...
Reality has burdened us with you
We grasp our hands just to slip away again
The Axe forgets, the Tree remembers
Each swing still sings your name
I always thought we'd reach forever
The song remains the same
The Axe forgets, the Tree remembers
But I won't forget to curse your name
The apple doesn't fall that far from the tree
Rotten to the core, your roots weakened beneath
The Axe forgets, the Tree remembers
Each swing still sings your name
I always thought we'd reach forever
The song remains the same
The Axe forgets, the Tree remembers
But I won't forget to curse your name
The song remains the same
So now it's come to this
A nightmare replaying over and over again
We've suffered enough
Barely breathing, hearts depleted
Torn in two
A marriage, a family all because of you
Make your bed
So you can restlessly slumber alone with the dead
I've been waiting
Contemplating
Reality has burdened us with this
The Axe forgets, the Tree remembers
Each swing still sings your name
I won't forget to curse your name
This song remains the same
Over and over and over again
Broken down to the bone
I've shaken you loose from our home
Silence is golden and has been for years
Once where love stood has now been replaced by my one true fear
I see your face in the mirror
Where you've been waiting
Contemplating...
Reality has burdened us with you
We grasp our hands just to slip away again
The Axe forgets, the Tree remembers
Each swing still sings your name
I always thought we'd reach forever
The song remains the same
The Axe forgets, the Tree remembers
But I won't forget to curse your name
The apple doesn't fall that far from the tree
Rotten to the core, your roots weakened beneath
The Axe forgets, the Tree remembers
Each swing still sings your name
I always thought we'd reach forever
The song remains the same
The Axe forgets, the Tree remembers
But I won't forget to curse your name
The song remains the same
