Chico Harpo - The Hanging Tree

I was angry with myself for wasting so much time
Trying to do the right thing by simply falling in line
Reluctantly I did as I was told and ended up like a catatonic clone

Do you feel like you're just hanging on to a life that was never your own
Do you feel like you're just hanging on, and on, and on, and on

So I chose to leave their world behind
It's better than living a life that's not mine
What's the point, the game's rigged anyway
You better figure out who's the real enemy
So like Van Gogh, I let go, of their status quo
Crazy's what they may call me but I would rather be painting
My canvas, my way

Do you feel like you're just hanging on to a life that was never your own
Do you feel like you're just hanging on, and on, and on, and on

I remember when I was a child
My imagination ran for miles
Then one day I was told to put those thoughts on hold
Cause it's time to join the fold and be a man
But now I'm here to take back what was mine all the time
My life

Do you feel like you're just hanging on to a life that was never your own
Do you feel like you're just hanging on, and on, and on, and on
Will you join me at the hanging tree
Will you join me at the hanging tree
