"An Adult Tree" lyrics

So cold, your icy fingers around my neck
You offer this rotten apple, begging me to taste and see
I'll take just one bite

I know you're coming like a bad dream when your demons fall to place, perverting all the answers

Corrupting what's inside you, believing everything, cut deeper to the core
But we know what's inside
We know what's inside

Go to bed, young dreamer
A prophet you'll arise to call us out
Go to bed, young dreamer
You tell of our decline, but you follow us down
(We know what's inside)

The breath of a fallen angel brings death if you breathe it in
Breathe it in
Breathe it in
Although you know what dwells inside

The breath of a fallen angel brings death if you breathe it in

To bite down, to chew, and to swallow
To muscle it down to dissolve
Bed-ridden, shivering fever
Follow it down

To bite down, to chew, and to swallow
Muscle it down to dissolve
Bed-ridden, shivering fever
Follow it down

Your icy fingers around my neck
Offering destruction, begging me to taste and see
So I take just one bite
It's the poison in your veins
It's the shiver down your spine
Cut deeper to the core
But we know what's inside

To bite down, to chew, and to swallow
To muscle it down to dissolve
Bed-ridden, shivering fever
To follow it down

To bite down, to chew, and to swallow
To muscle it down to dissolve
Bed-ridden, shivering fever
To follow it down

And we know you'll bite down and you'll follow us under the ground
And we know you'll bite down and you'll follow us under the ground

Go to bed, young dreamer
A prophet you'll arise to call us out
Go to bed, young dreamer
You tell of our decline, but you follow us down
(We know what's inside)
