suicide tree

you greet me with a smile that I have never earned
you manifest a love that I never learnt

and as the road rolls up behind me
will I drown in yesterday?

You will find me at the suicide tree
But will you be there with open arms to comfort me?

i never meant to stamp out this love before it grew
I never meant to lose hope like i lost hope for you

And as the years swell up behind me
Will I drown in my yesterday?
