Under the Spreading Chestnut Tree

 


The Chest nut tree café, the place where one is sent to commiserate with the others who have been trough the process and room 101. There they sit and wait to be shot.


Under the Spreading Chestnut Tree

Under the spreading chestnut tree

I sold you, and you sold me

There lie they, and here lie we,

Under the spreading chestnut tree.

 

I've never been alone

it's a comfort to know

leaves a chill in my bones.

The written word is a lie

and our children are spies

yet I don't want to die.

Proof lies in the words that I write

but if I were to fight

would it be worth my life?

They sing what ever they choose

only birds and proles do

why should I not sing to?

what have I to lose?

unless their price is you.

 

Under the spreading chestnut tree

I sold you, and you sold me.

There lie they and here lie we.

Under the spreading chestnut tree.

 

You are a risk I will take

for every law I can break

proves I am their mistake.

Beaten and broken apart

it's a science, an art

but they can't break my heart.

We will do whatever they ask

staying out of their grasp

was an impossible task.

Their wrong outweighs their right

but how can I fight,

when they threaten my life?

Two and two equal five.

In the place full of light.

 

Under the spreading chestnut tree

I sold you, and you sold me.

There lie they, and here lie we.

Under the spreading chestnut tree.

 

I sit and waste away

in the corner cafe

as a song starts to play.

I stare into the eyes so stern

and as the bullet enters

I will live, I have learned.

 

Under the spreading chestnut tree

I sold you, and you sold me.

There lie they and here lie we,

Under the spreading chestnut tree.
