Cuttin' the Tree Lyrics

If it bleeds, would you tighten the tourniquet
or would you stare at the open wound
with l*** and fascination
If the cut runs deep, would you
reach inside of it
or would you twist the knife in tight
with l*** 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,
[well] are you settin' on me.
You've got me out on the limb now honey,
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 l*** and fascination.
If I scream
would you kill to silence it.
Like stealing the words of a drowning man,
with l*** 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,
[well] are you settin' on me.
You've got me out on the limb now honey,
would you be cuttin' the tree.
Would you...
Would you...
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, [I'm] so blind I can't see.
Are you settin' your sights now baby,
[well] are you settin' on me.
You've got me out on the limb now honey,
would you be cuttin' the tree.
Would you be cuttin' the tree.
Would you be cuttin' the tree.
