They mound like a grave on today's front page
covering the news that a soldier was hanged
After being tortured and kept in a cage
Always being kicked and his head being banged
Leaving behind a woman who cared
And loved him will now be a widow of murder
His last thoughts were of the time they shared
And how his death is going to hurt her
She couldn't take all of this pain
As he's put in the ground with angel singers
She couldn't take it, she is going insane
She is a prisoner of the tree and it's green fingers
And so she comes to dream herself the tree
The same one that choked him blue
Now dreams of a rope setting her free
That devilish tree had taken her too
