Текст песни: The Hanging Tree + перевод

Walk along the waterfall

Watching as the world turns red

Wonder where the river flows

And the blood on the river bed

Poison lies too close to us Reach across the salt and sand

Moving deeper into the land

Following the waterfall

Watching as the world turns green

Wonder where the river flows

The copper face remains unseen

Ignorance has failed to cleanse

Reach across the salt and sand

Moving deeper into the land

Crying as the earth cries out

Weeping as the land decays

Wonder if I could have helped

Maybe I’d have found a way

Poison lies too close to us Reach across the salt and sand

Moving deeper into the land

Cling to the branch of a tree

That was waiting for

Something to preach

Someone to teach

The Word was the first

And the last to be heard

From the branch of the tree

It was praying for me to fall down

Climb to the top of a tree

That was waiting for

Someone to warn

A life to be torn into

Pieces of gold

For a soul to be sold

And the heart of the tree

Was crying for me to come back

Take me to the hanging tree

There’s a man in the light

And he’s pointing at me Guide me to the hanging tree

It’s the place that I come from

Walk along the waterline

Reach across the salt and the sand

Moving deeper into the land

Take me to the hanging tree

There’s a boy in the light

And he’s staring at me Take me to the hanging tree

It’s the place that I come from

Walk along the waterline

Reach across the salt and the sand

Moving deeper into the land

I’m falling… Falling down again!
