The Killing Tree - Dressed to Fuck (+lyrics)

One of my personal favorite Killing Tree songs off "Hair: Chicago punk cuts"

On the eve of our exile we carve names in the oaks
To remember our last days of life on the ropes
In broad daylight we crawl through the trenches
To meet our fate of our razor wire fences
As we crash through the floor
Taking but always wanting more
My lips are wet and dry and as the night, cold as ice
As the ground beneath me fails we all take flight
Hold Us captive but we never die, never die
Fix these broken dreams and leave this place alive

I will come to you in madness and impossibility
I will come to you forever knowing you will come to me
I will come to you as life's fears kick the ground beneath my feet
I will come to you forever knowing you will come to me

So much I don't know, I don't know, I don't know

As we crash through the floor
Taking but always wanting more

My lips are getting dry and as the night, cold as ice
As the ground beneath me fails we all take flight
Hold Us captive but we never die, never die
Fix these broken dreams and leave this place alive

[As we crash]


It's always blurry
Words that I can't hear
Steal my breath again
Then she disappears

This is what I am
A fogged symmetry
Begging to be put
Out of my misery

I wait for the sky
Filled with broken dreams
To open up and swallow me

I will leave this place alive
I will leave this place alive
I will leave this place alive
I will leave this place alive

My lips are getting dry and as the night, cold as ice
As the ground beneath me fails we all take flight
Hold Us captive but we never die, never die
Fix these broken dreams and leave this place
I will leave this place
I will leave this place
I will leave this place alive

@chaos0emperor Go check out "Replace My Heart". Sounds nothing like RA.

[Sentientt]

@mvachef I believe you mean some of their better songs, not some of their earlier. Lets be honest the past two albums have been a joke along with the tours that followed, the crowds loosing the feel it use to have as it sways into a new generation of twerps with no respect or understanding of how to act at a show. it use to be a family. /end rant.. to finish what i was saying.. the first three albums where all great works of art, it saddens me when they played broken english and no one knew it

@xXxWolfmotherxXx Too bad this came before drones. XD

[chrisg20x]

[IamAmazinghehe]

Thats true this song is like a hard version of drones XD

[epicfailz13]

I can totally here the similarity. He sounds almost exactly the same to me.

@chaos0emperor Rise Against and The Killing Tree sound almost nothing a like. Check out their other shit, it's much harder. The only time Tim in RA sounds the TKT is when he screams. TKT is a much better band.

@edbeswicklive REALLY PEOPLE ONLY 8 LIKES...COME ON!

[xXxWolfmotherxXx]

@Shackinwhack seriously skip to 0:42 That sounds almost exactly the same as drones.
