Ilium - Harlequin Tree lyrics

Artist: Ilium

album: Carcinogeist


In the dream
I cannot scream
My blood begins to freeze
I wonder if it sees me
From the rusty carousel
I cannot move
I hear its shoes
They squeak among the leaves
Again I cannot get away
As I relive this Hell
And as I awaken
There's a sour smell of sweat
My heart is racing faster
My life is a disaster
My panic still accelerates
The circus is in town
I know to take my life back
I will have to kill a clown
That noise is haunting me
That old calliope
It chills my bones
I'm cold as stone
And then I see my prey
That painted smile is fake
They're all the same
They thrive on pain
And as I strangle him
Those smirking eyes grow ever dim
And now he's doomed to be
The first clown hanging from my tree
Harlequin tree
Your fruit so colourful
Ornaments swing for me
Harlequin tree
Exact my vengeance
Clowns are swaying in the breeze
I have my suit all made
My makeup for my grave
And soon I will be free
And as a church bell rang
I knew soon I would hang
From the harlequin tree
Nobody ventures there
They say there's laughter there
More chilling than a scream
And haunts you in your dreams
And drives you mad
And as they cut them down
To lay on cursed ground
They knew they'd never be free
Never to be free
From the torment that writhes
In their dreams every night
From their fate with the Harlequin Tree
