about

Cuttin' the Tree (Recorded live during the Marillion Brave tour in 2000)

lyrics

If it bleeds, would you tighten the tourniquet
or would you stare at the open wound
with lust and fascination

If the cut runs deep, would you reach
inside of it
or would you twist the knife in tight
with lust and fascination

You've got me out on the limb now baby,
would you be cuttin' the tree.
you've got the wool in my eyes now
honey so blind I can't see
are you settin your sights now baby,
are you settin' on me.
You've got me out on the limb now baby,
would you be cuttin' the tree
would you be cuttin' the tree
would you

If I sleep
would you come inside of it
would you steal all my dreams of life
with lust and fascination

If I scream
would you kill to silence it
like stealing the words of a drowning man
with lust and fascination

You've got me out on the limb now baby,
would you be cuttin' the tree.
You've got the wool in my eyes no
honey so blind I can't see.
are you settin your sights now baby
are you settin on me.
You've got me out on the limb now baby,
would you be cuttin' the tree
would you be cuttin' the tree, would you
be cuttin' the tree.
