The Shade Of Poison Trees

If you knew what I know, would you try

Before your time has run anew and worn you down?

Would you know what you deserve in your heart?

And if you knew what I knew would you try?Is that time, is that time

To follow just one desire?

Is that time, is that time

To follow your heart's?Dress your wounds, test your strength, face the night

Crave the touch, feel the pain, know the signs

Is there truth in your pain? You decide

If you knew what I know, would you try?Is that time, is that time

To follow just one desire?

Is that time, is that time

To follow your heart's?As we lie in the shade of poison trees

Are we as safe as we like ourselves believe?
