Hanging Tree

Oh how I wish I had a hanging tree

For it would end my misery

Underneath its canopy I would swing

Until the pain faded away

A tight noose I would make around my neck

So in case I cowered I couldn’t escape

Oh how I wish I had a hanging tree

One that would end this pain

Turn my gray skies to blue

Make my blues turn the other way

Oh how I wish I had a hanging tree

So I could hang myself today
