WELCOME

Hello! You are very welcome to EllY Tree's lyric pages.  I love words so I hope you find some to interest you here.

WALKING BACKWARDS

​

S t r u n g o u t on a mainframe like crows 

hung

out

to

dry

It's organized chaos from crack to crack

 

When you’re walking backwards you can remember the dead

When you’re walking backwards But you can’t escape your head

 

On every pavement on every one way street

Love lies bleeding

Examine the state of your soul 

Examine the state of your underwear

 

When you’re walking backwards you can’t remember your own name

When you’re walking backwardsYou can’t escape your head

 

Every illusion is 

falling away no hidden meanings

Ai escaped from the prison 

Running from trust

running from trust

running from trust

 

There is no fixed gender identity 

among the nations of Gethen 

A native of Terra

This is the story of Genly Ai

 

When you’re walking backwards you can remember the dead

When you’re walking backwards you can’t remember your name

When you’re walking backwards nothing looks the same

 

No-one can tell you goodbye 

 

YOU CAN'T ESCAPE YOUR HEAD
