Lyrics inspired by William Blake's "A poison tree" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Poison_Tree):

Oh I was very angry with my friend
So I told my wrath and my wrath did end
And I was very angry with my foe
so I told it not and my wrath did grow

So I watered it night and morning with my fears
and I watered it night and morning with my tears
and I sunned it I sunned it with smiles
and I sunned it with soft deceitful wiles

And it grew both day and night
till it bore an apple bright
and my foe beheld it shine and shine
and he knew that it was mine

Oh I was very angry with my friend
So I told my wrath and my wrath did end
And I was very angry with my foe
so I told it not and my wrath did grow

And it grew both day and night
till it bore an apple bright
and my foe beheld it shine and shine
and he knew that it was mine

And into my garden stole
when the night has veiled the pole
In the morning glad I see I see
He's outstretched beneath the tree
