• Under the spreading chestnut tree (by Orwell's "1984")

Under the spreading chestnut tree
I sold you, and you sold me
There lie they, and here lie we,
Under the spreading chestnut tree.

I've never been alone
it's a comfort to know
leaves a chill in my bones.
The written word is a lie
and our children are spies
yet I don't want to die.
Proof lies in the words that I write
but if I were to fight
would it be worth my life?
They sing what ever they choose
only birds and proles do
why should I not sing to?
what have I to lose?
unless their price is you.

Under the spreading chestnut tree
I sold you, and you sold me.
There lie they and here lie we.
Under the spreading chestnut tree.

You are a risk I will take
for every law I can break
proves I am their mistake.
Beaten and broken apart
it's a science, an art
but they can't break my heart.
We will do whatever they ask
staying out of their grasp
was an impossible task.
Their wrong outweighs their right
but how can I fight,
when they threaten my life?
Two and two equal five.
In the place full of light.

Under the spreading chestnut tree
I sold you, and you sold me.
There lie they, and here lie we.
Under the spreading chestnut tree.

I sit and waste away
in the corner cafe
as a song starts to play.
I stare into the eyes so stern
and as the bullet enters
I will live, I have learned.

Under the spreading chestnut tree
I sold you, and you sold me.
There lie they and here lie we,
Under the spreading chestnut tree.
