Hanging Tree

Out of the East never see the sunrise
Spoon fed peas, swallowing eyes
We know that promise is sweet but it's laced with venom
And we're their livin sacrifice
Ohhh! Now baby
One by one, you line us up
Two by two, and three you'll send us home
Are you, are you, coming to the tree
They strung up a man, they say who murdered three
Strange things did happen here, no stranger would it be
If we met at midnight in the hanging tree
Jackrabbit on the rooftop now
Your magic can be seen for miles
Stop sellin' all our dreams to the wild
Can you hear us?
Jackrabbit on the rooftop now
Your magic can be seen for miles
Can you hear us?
Howl, howl, howl
Yeah
How do you see while the black crow flies
Caught between who's wrong and right
Ooo it's cruel, your game to gain momentum
But go on and feast your eyes
Ohhh! Now baby
One by one, you line us up
Two by two, and three you'll send us home
Are you, are you, coming to the tree
Where I told you to run, so we'd both be free
Strange things did happen here, no stranger would it be
If we met at midnight in the hanging tree
Jackrabbit on the rooftop now
Your magic can be seen for miles
Stop sellin all our dreams to the wild
Can you hear us?
Jackrabbit on the rooftop now
Your magic can be seen for miles
Can you hear us?
Howl, howl, howl
Yeah
Are you, are you, coming to the tree
Where necklace of hope, side by side with me
Strange things did happen here, no stranger would it be
If we met at midnight in the hanging tree
