Based of a poem by William Blake called 'A Poison Tree'. The poem focuses on the emotion of anger and the consequences for our relationships should that anger be suppressed. In the poem the speaker tells of how he talked to a friend about his anger and everything was fine but with an enemy he could not do so and kept the anger inside. It began to grow, eventually becoming a metaphorical tree with poison fruit. The enemy or foe ends up under the tree, destroyed by the speaker's pent up anger. The speaker seems ok about this but is there some doubt about the destructiveness of his anger? Early communication of anger seems the best way to deal with it. A Poison Tree uses metaphor, antithesis and biblical associations to highlight the self-damage that can proceed from suppressing anger. The emphasis is on letting go of negative emotions and moving on with life before this energy impacts on the health and well being of others. This poem is an extended metaphor - the wrath (anger) becomes a tree, a fruit, a poison apple.
My mom is dieing of cancer. Watching her slowly evaporate from hunger and sickness is extremely tough. For some reason, this music has connected me with distant memories shared with my mother. It’s moving. Heart wrenching. Peaceful all the same time.
I’m sorry my friend for what your going through. Love your mother like never before. Make her laugh, comfort her, kiss her, hold her hand and tell her how magnificent she is.
This song is one of the best encapsulations of the feeling of isolation that comes with being so angry at society, and having 0 outlet, that your rage becomes you, your spite becomes your personality, your anger becomes your voice, your frustrations become the way others see you, until your bones and blood have been replaced with nothing but the inside tiny beautiful poison tree. I've been at that point several points in my life, where my depression and anger made me so abrasive that the only people willing to talk to me were people equally as angry as me, the people willing to eat the fruit from my poison tree, but never anyone there for me, just for my bitter honey-laced fruit.
I know it sounds like the most pretentious hipster shit, but when people ask me what kind of music I listen to I just try not to have the conversation. the whole "you've probably never heard of it" is so cliché, but it's also the truest thing that can be said when it comes to having this conversation with 99% of people. lol
I feel like this song perfectly incapsulates what depression can be. It can feel comfortable at one point where even if it is poisonous it feels really good and perfect, so you want it to destroy you and you eventually become the poison tree.
music is extremely powerful and this song shows just that. it’s incredible how much music can make you feel something, or j anything in general. it can lift ur mood for two minutes or let the mood die for two minutes. i could go on and on why i love music sm but this is such a huge reason. this song makes me see that. this song is incredibly written and the music. i can feel the expression coming off of it.
A Poison Tree BY WILLIAM BLAKE I was angry with my friend; I told my wrath, my wrath did end. I was angry with my foe: I told it not, my wrath did grow. And I waterd it in fears, Night & morning with my tears: And I sunned it with smiles, And with soft deceitful wiles. And it grew both day and night. Till it bore an apple bright. And my foe beheld it shine, And he knew that it was mine. And into my garden stole, When the night had veild the pole; In the morning glad I see; My foe outstretched beneath the tree.
It's crazy the power of music , I always say it is very spiritual being able to transcend emotions . I'm not sad but listening to this song makes me feel the sadness being expressed and to be honest it's beautiful but yet again dangerous cause it kinda like a bit of sadness get stuck on me .
im so glad someone feels this way about music too. This comment made me so happy cuz i feel the same way. Listening to this song or any song that means alot to you feels like traveling to another world
I fell asleep listening to this music, and it seemed to make me have dreams. Dreams that weren't happy. They brought up humiliating scenarios. I woke up feeling a part of myself in my head like something in me was either growing or decaying. It was weird. It could be a combination of my current stress but it felt attached to the song. I failed to understand what I felt. You should try falling asleep to this music and tell me what you feel after you wake up. I want to know it's not just me.
Now, this could be completely wrong, but... I feel the song is about gaining power or success by something that you know is bad for you, but you do it anyway. "least I'll still have company," I think that line is like although I'm doing is an evil thing, at least I'm becoming what I dreamed of. "Make me feel like something powerful is growing deep inside of me"(The feeling of power and success), "Make my branches strong and hard"(become large and successful) "turn me into a poison tree"(become someone large and solid but bitter and selfish). Nevertheless, this song is fantastic and truly a masterpiece like many grouper songs. Thank you for reading! :]
I personally think its meant to represent the suppression of emotion. The poison tree growing is meant to represent the buildup of frustration/guilt/regret. The suppressed instrumentals of the song also give off that same feeling, like it's being held back.
The song itself is based on a poem about repressing anger and having it come to fruition anyway, so both of your analysis' are on point A Poison Tree BY WILLIAM BLAKE I was angry with my friend; I told my wrath, my wrath did end.

It’s about suppressing emotions and what can happen if you do it for too long Unlike what it may sound like the song isn’t a satanic ritual that’s meant to turn people into literal trees The tree is a metaphor for dark thoughts and suppression of emotions and the consequences of letting them take over you
This song is one of my most favorite songs. Ever since I found it I somehow grew attached to it. There are times when it's gloomy and dark and I put this song on. This song sounds like a gloomy day and a draining week. Not a depressing one, just an uneventful one. Days like that are wonderful. You could sit in solace and do nothing.
This song is able to make me miss a home I know doesn't exist, family that don't exist, another version of me that doesn't exist either. It makes me feel loved but also makes me hate myself and want to be someone else. How can a song make me feel like this is all a sick game that I live but ground me more than anything else can?
Whenever I listen to this, it evokes deeply suppressed feelings inside me Reminds me of the empty, dark streets with growling skies that will soon turn into tears This is so beautiful
IT ALSO INVOKES DEEPLY SUPPRESSED FEELINGS IN ME TOO! I fell asleep listening to this in school and I had some really stressful dreams. I also woke up feeling a part of myself in my head was either growing or decaying, but that could be because I was just waking up and not fully comprehending anything I heard. Try falling asleep to it and tell me what you dream about or feel.
This song makes me feel like I’m walking alone along a dark road in a time when no one else is awake. It’s only me, my footsteps, and the light of a single streetlamp faded by the mist hanging in the air. This song is both the bliss and sadness of solitude, how beautifully liberating yet lonely life can be; this song brings a feeling that I’ve been searching for my whole life.
This song is me when I look out my window to a dark sky and droplets of water washing away the stains on the glass. When I lay on my bed, with no thoughts running through my mind, so peaceful yet the sadness is still there. When I dream of running around in a forest, hearing old leaves crushing beneath my feet, swaying my body with the wind, dancing with the trees. This song just makes up my mindset.
What a beautiful song. I never get tired of it. It brings me such a bittersweet feeling. A song I really needed while I was going through a horrible breakup and well as handling addiction. I’m so glad to see how much I’ve grown now from when I first discovered this song
In 2020, I lost my grandpa unexpectedly. At that time, I found this song and listened to it back then very often. It was winter and after all the years , it finally snowed. In that moment, I wished that my grandpa would be there because he enjoyed the snow. Whenever I replayed this song, it felt like it was telling my story over these lyrics. How I lost my grandpa and how much pain I endured at that time. It kind of was very beautiful though knowing that even if he died, my feelings are still able to evoke through just one song. I miss you dede.
I lost my grandpa about a month ago to cancer. During his last days, I listened to this song over and over, thinking of him facing illness and death. It seemed to perfectly fit the emotions I was feeling, mourning a loved one, accepting that my childhood is gone forever, and all that lives are memories. You're not alone, and I'm pleasantly surprised that neither am I. I'm sorry for your loss.
@aya13.1 I feel you both I lost my grandfather unexpectedly in 2024 I was on deployment in the middle of the red sea and on top of that I missed the funeral and I never got to cope with it and it eats at ne to this day I can't even delete his text message outta my phone
Putting them here bc it goes a lil too fast for me Throwing poison seeds into the wind Make the poison tree to grow in me begin Let your branches fork my veins Let your honey tide in me Blood loving, poison whispering Oh, beautiful poison tree Let your power grow in me Let your sorrow pour in me Take away my blood and bones Make your flowers deep inside of me Least I'll still have company In my insides, tiny poison tree I seal my love in me Tiny beautiful poison tree Oh, beautiful poison tree Let your power grow in me Let your sorrows flow in me Turn me into a poison tree Turn me into a poison tree Make my shadow go away Make my branches strong and hard Make my leaves flower and spread Make me feel like something powerful Is growing deep inside of me Turn me into a poison tree
I have a theory on what this song is about... I think this song is about fake love. About loving someone who says they also love you but they don't really. It's about someone basically manipulating you in a sense. And then you become so dependent on their "love." But then you kind of realize what they are doing but you are already so addicted to the fake love that you just still go with it because it's hard to give up. Here's my proof: So the song starts out with, "throwing poison seeds into the wind" that essentially is where the manipulation begins. That someone is planting seeds of fake confirmation in your head. And that's when the poison tree begins to grow, hence the second line. Then it mentions, "let your honey tide in me." which basically represents the sweet nothings that the person is saying. Then after that it says, "little lovin' poison whisperin'" which is once again that person whispering sweet nothings into your ear and you believing it. And then the song goes on about how she wants the poison tree to make her feel powerful and how she's becoming dependent on it basically ("let your power grow in me.") But then it gets into the part where she finally realizes what they are doing ("at least I'll still have company") But she can't do anything about it because even though she knows it's bad for her she can't stop ("Make my shadows go away, make my branches strong and hard, make my leaves flower and spread, make me feel like something powerful is growing deep inside of me) Or of course this song could also be about an addiction of any kind because that would also make sense with the proof I pointed out above. Sorry this is really long I just felt like sharing it and if you have any ideas about what this song is about then you can always let me know :))

This is peak music. Glad there's a whole fanbase for this type of song. This track and Alien Observer are probably two of the best atmospheric tracks ever made. Such simple riffs and the soft singing just compliments the whole foundation of it.
This song gives me literally every time I listen to it, this crazy feeling in my stomach, when something really bad/ good happens in my life. But on the other hand, it gives me the atmosphere of walking alone in the rain in a dark forest thinking about everything and nothing.
Throwing poison seeds into the wind Make the poison tree to grow in me begin Let your branches fork my veins Let your honey tide in me Little lovin poison whisperin Oh, beautiful poison tree Let your power grow in me Let your sorrow flow in me Take away my blood and bones, Make your flowers deep inside of me Leastl'll still have company My inside, tiny poison tree l'll seal my love in me Tiny beautiful poison tree Oh, beautiful poison tree Let your power grow in me Let your sorrows sow in me Turn me into a poison tree Turn me into a poison tree Make my shadow go away Make my branches strong and hard Make my leaves flowers and spread Make me feel like something powerful is growing deep inside of me Turn me into a poison tree.
Damn! I really wish I knew what she's talking about. That's what's so really cool about Grouper's music, her lyrics, if you can even understand what she's singing, are so vague and poetic that pretty much only the singer herself can ever really know what the song's about!
i found this song in a twilight playlist i listened to last year. since then i've never stopped listening to it. makes me feel in some sort of unexplainable way. it gives me comfort but also makes me anxious at the same time. i love it sm.
this song feels like walking alone in the evening while the sky is aesthetically foggy while you feel a cold breeze around u feeling like an angel just passed by u
This song makes me think of a cold, gloomy fall or winter night. While I am fortunate enough to sit in my house with heat. I look out my windows and watch the trees blow around from the wind.
This song feels like walking alone in a warm, rainy forest, along paths that run deep into it. You pass by ferny glades, and a sense of piercing peace and calming isolation passes over you. You never want to leave this dream, you want to become one in the dream to escape reality. The enchanting feeling engulfs you within this dream realm, washing out all worry and all thought with the rain, soft and misty, forming warm droplets on your skin.
This song speaks to me of the desire to finally have the power to feel only the emotions you wish to, to take heartbreak and pain and violation, to cultivate it and make it yours. Taking the power away from others to hurt you. Becoming a living, self preserving poison to those who have caused you harm.
I feel so too. I have complex ptsd and hating myself feeling like literal poison was a whole theme throughout my childhood, also being alone with no caregivers, and still being alone 20 years later. This song makes me feel kind of whole and in tune with my past selves, my trauma, the memories, the emptiness, all the pain. I’ve been there for myself my whole life and „Least I‘ll still have company, my inside, tiny poison tree“ describes that perfectly for me, I feel like I can make peace with my poison tree and we are one and always have been? this song feels like my pain made sense when in reality it doesn’t and is just collateral damage.
I think making meaning out of pain is important, even if the pain doesn't make sense. And the fact that its yours and it belongs to you (not the other way around) is a powerful feeling. @@nusskernmischung5428
For some reason i always thought of this song as a slight reference to suicide. The repetitive melody reminds me of repetitive suicidal thoughts, and then the whole "poison tree growing inside of you" thing makes me think of slowly dying from a suicide method, maybe poisoning.
It's like being in a matte blurry cube with your friends, just blocked away from everything outside. Idek what that means but that's the image I get everytime I listen to this
this song for some reason transports me to childhood or puts me back into what my imagination made of darkness melancholy and gloom observed as a child. halloween, cold nights, grey skies, sad confusing emotions
Happy Friday The 13th! Been listening to this song for weeks now before work and it always makes me feel so calm and magical. A little sad but only because I'm not outside with the trees and frolicking in the grass.
I loved this song a lot. When I hear it, I feel a beautiful and calm feeling. I always listen to it when I feel bored. I love it so much and I put it on my alarm clock. I feel a beautiful feeling when I hear it.
The melody has a familiarity to it, it comforts me though I don’t know why.. it makes me miss something, though I don’t know what exactly. I imagine myself being in a big empty cold room and the darkness travelling towards me. Though the darkness scares me I welcome it’s embrace. I feel maybe I’ll hear this song in the future and the nostalgic sadness I feel now is for when I think back to these times that are no longer here. I just hope I’ll be in better and happier times.
This song feels like a cloudy/rainy morning, when you are alone in the bed, with the silence around you. You stay there watching out of the window and thinking. This song toatally feels like that 🩶
Just found this song after having to put my dog down two days ago, I don’t care how strong you think you are, that shit will break you. I’ll miss you, buddy ❤️
This song is the most existential yet unbothered death I can imagine. And I feel it. Let your branches fork my veins. Take away my blood and bones. No, don’t give those away, how horribly painful must your life be to give those things away so carelessly? Have you given up to such a degree? It reminds me of being cremated and your ashes being spread into the earth to grow into new forms of life, make me feel like something powerful is growing deep inside of me. The pain in these lyrics feels like giving up on a friend who’s given up on living.
This song is my comfort song the feeling to this song is so nice calm lonely and missing at the same time I have so much emotions idk but it feels great.
This song inspired me to draw what I'd wanna see in my dreams, and where I'd wanna stay forever. I can describe it, but it may not make sense, so I apologize. So, when you look up, the sky is cloudy, with chances of there being rain or thunder, and the Sun doesn't come out. When we look straight, we will see a tree with a massive hole in the middle, with branches on top, and yes, the branches reach to the sky, making the tree tall. When you look to the left side, you will see bushes far behind the trunk of the tree, nothing else but a trunk, then, when you look right, you will see bushes far behind a tiny tree, with no leaves, a tiny bare tree. You can go to the left again, and notice that a chunk of leaves were cut from the bushes, forming a square gap, enough for us to walk through, and when you walk through, it's a grass field, and the grass is dark and a little moist, and yes, it's windy.
I love this song so much, so simple, yet so exquisite. I see a lot of people showing their interpretationsof the song, so here's mine. The speaker has trusted too many people, and has been hurt too many times, so they ask the poison tree to grow inside of them and make them stronger, more bitter, give them somethingto hurt people back with. They find this beautiful, and ask the poison tree to replace their weaknesses. But as poison does, it will end up burning not only the people on the outside but also the speaker from the inside,showing how this bitterness can eventually harm the person harbouring it.
Play this song and sit alone with a cigarette at night and think about your life and the future. This is painful and makes me want to sleep in a terrible way 😕
this song feels like walking alone at night, while a storm brews above. just you and the wind and dark clouds. when even the moon is not with you.
Ikr also the beach by the nbhd has the same kind of vibee
thanks for reading my mind

A Poison Tree
BY WILLIAM BLAKE
I was angry with my friend;
I told my wrath, my wrath did end.
I was angry with my foe:
I told it not, my wrath did grow.
And I waterd it in fears,
Night & morning with my tears:
And I sunned it with smiles,
And with soft deceitful wiles.
And it grew both day and night.
Till it bore an apple bright.
And my foe beheld it shine,
And he knew that it was mine.
And into my garden stole,
When the night had veild the pole;
In the morning glad I see;
My foe outstretched beneath the tree.

This song makes me feel like I’m walking alone along a dark road in a time when no one else is awake. It’s only me, my footsteps, and the light of a single streetlamp faded by the mist hanging in the air. This song is both the bliss and sadness of solitude, how beautifully liberating yet lonely life can be; this song brings a feeling that I’ve been searching for my whole life.
KILLING OURSELVES W THIS ONE🗣️🔥‼️‼️‼️
Never heard that one 😂
This song is me when I look out my window to a dark sky and droplets of water washing away the stains on the glass.
When I lay on my bed, with no thoughts running through my mind, so peaceful yet the sadness is still there.
When I dream of running around in a forest, hearing old leaves crushing beneath my feet, swaying my body with the wind, dancing with the trees.
This song just makes up my mindset.
What a beautiful song. I never get tired of it. It brings me such a bittersweet feeling. A song I really needed while I was going through a horrible breakup and well as handling addiction. I’m so glad to see how much I’ve grown now from when I first discovered this song
In 2020, I lost my grandpa unexpectedly. At that time, I found this song and listened to it back then very often. It was winter and after all the years , it finally snowed. In that moment, I wished that my grandpa would be there because he enjoyed the snow. Whenever I replayed this song, it felt like it was telling my story over these lyrics. How I lost my grandpa and how much pain I endured at that time. It kind of was very beautiful though knowing that even if he died, my feelings are still able to evoke through just one song. I miss you dede.
Why are we alike, but this happened to me in 2022
I lost my grandpa about a month ago to cancer. During his last days, I listened to this song over and over, thinking of him facing illness and death. It seemed to perfectly fit the emotions I was feeling, mourning a loved one, accepting that my childhood is gone forever, and all that lives are memories. You're not alone, and I'm pleasantly surprised that neither am I. I'm sorry for your loss.
@aya13.1 I feel you both I lost my grandfather unexpectedly in 2024 I was on deployment in the middle of the red sea and on top of that I missed the funeral and I never got to cope with it and it eats at ne to this day I can't even delete his text message outta my phone
Putting them here bc it goes a lil too fast for me
Throwing poison seeds into the wind
Make the poison tree to grow in me begin
Let your branches fork my veins
Let your honey tide in me
Blood loving, poison whispering
Oh, beautiful poison tree
Let your power grow in me
Let your sorrow pour in me
Take away my blood and bones
Make your flowers deep inside of me
Least I'll still have company
In my insides, tiny poison tree
I seal my love in me
Tiny beautiful poison tree
Oh, beautiful poison tree
Let your power grow in me
Let your sorrows flow in me
Turn me into a poison tree
Turn me into a poison tree
Make my shadow go away
Make my branches strong and hard
Make my leaves flower and spread
Make me feel like something powerful
Is growing deep inside of me
Turn me into a poison tree
this is real art...
I have a theory on what this song is about...
I think this song is about fake love. About loving someone who says they also love you but they don't really. It's about someone basically manipulating you in a sense. And then you become so dependent on their "love." But then you kind of realize what they are doing but you are already so addicted to the fake love that you just still go with it because it's hard to give up.
Here's my proof: So the song starts out with, "throwing poison seeds into the wind" that essentially is where the manipulation begins. That someone is planting seeds of fake confirmation in your head. And that's when the poison tree begins to grow, hence the second line. Then it mentions, "let your honey tide in me." which basically represents the sweet nothings that the person is saying. Then after that it says, "little lovin' poison whisperin'" which is once again that person whispering sweet nothings into your ear and you believing it. And then the song goes on about how she wants the poison tree to make her feel powerful and how she's becoming dependent on it basically ("let your power grow in me.")
But then it gets into the part where she finally realizes what they are doing ("at least I'll still have company") But she can't do anything about it because even though she knows it's bad for her she can't stop ("Make my shadows go away, make my branches strong and hard, make my leaves flower and spread, make me feel like something powerful is growing deep inside of me)
Or of course this song could also be about an addiction of any kind because that would also make sense with the proof I pointed out above.
Sorry this is really long I just felt like sharing it and if you have any ideas about what this song is about then you can always let me know :))
its about the poem poison tree by william blake
you might be on something here what's your instagram name
Based of a poem by William Blake called 'A Poison Tree'. The poem focuses on the emotion of anger and the consequences for our relationships should that anger be suppressed.
In the poem the speaker tells of how he talked to a friend about his anger and everything was fine but with an enemy he could not do so and kept the anger inside. It began to grow, eventually becoming a metaphorical tree with poison fruit.
The enemy or foe ends up under the tree, destroyed by the speaker's pent up anger. The speaker seems ok about this but is there some doubt about the destructiveness of his anger? Early communication of anger seems the best way to deal with it.
A Poison Tree uses metaphor, antithesis and biblical associations to highlight the self-damage that can proceed from suppressing anger. The emphasis is on letting go of negative emotions and moving on with life before this energy impacts on the health and well being of others. This poem is an extended metaphor - the wrath (anger) becomes a tree, a fruit, a poison apple.
Wow Beautiful Analysis, songs can be about many different things and I really resonated with what you said
This is peak music. Glad there's a whole fanbase for this type of song. This track and Alien Observer are probably two of the best atmospheric tracks ever made. Such simple riffs and the soft singing just compliments the whole foundation of it.
What’s this genre called?
@@hamza-be2bq ambient pop or rock or simply ambient music I think
@@hamza-be2bq I think 'ambient folk' describes well this style and this song
This song feels like the smell of rain and walking barefoot through mulch. A simple life everyone wants but no one has. Life is cruel.
i love this song so much truly a masterpiece
„Make me feel like something powerful is growing deep inside of me“ is such a raw line.
This song gives me literally every time I listen to it, this crazy feeling in my stomach, when something really bad/ good happens in my life. But on the other hand, it gives me the atmosphere of walking alone in the rain in a dark forest thinking about everything and nothing.
اغنية تخليني اتذكر بعض من ذكريات طفولتي الجميلة وكأنها تعدي هذا الذكريات ك سيناريو في هذه الأغنية
Nice bomb plan
This song seems to make me dream about stressful shit.
@@someone.007 nahhhhh 💀 😂

Make me feel like something powerful is growing deep inside of me
Turn me into a poison tree.
This song feels like dying alone
Maybe this is it?
This song sounds very lonely, sad, depressing but also calming, it leaves me on the border of crying
This song feels like a dark October night, where it just stopped raining. This sounds like Thursday, walking through the foggy forest.
This is art. A masterpiece. I love songs that makes me stop whatever it is I’m doing and just listen ❤
this song changed my life
Damn! I really wish I knew what she's talking about. That's what's so really cool about Grouper's music, her lyrics, if you can even understand what she's singing, are so vague and poetic that pretty much only the singer herself can ever really know what the song's about!
I always thought it was about trauma and how it sticks with you and changes you as a person forever.
i found this song in a twilight playlist i listened to last year. since then i've never stopped listening to it. makes me feel in some sort of unexplainable way. it gives me comfort but also makes me anxious at the same time. i love it sm.
this song feels like walking alone in the evening while the sky is aesthetically foggy while you feel a cold breeze around u feeling like an angel just passed by u
This song makes me think of a cold, gloomy fall or winter night. While I am fortunate enough to sit in my house with heat. I look out my windows and watch the trees blow around from the wind.
Now I can't help but think of Xxxtentacion every time I listen to this song, Long Live Jahseh. 🕊️💙
Nah this hit different why you wrote this..
Real LLJ
That's what l was saying LLJ
This song is my comfort, when I have no one this song has me. It has a place in my heart
My favorite song from two years ago, it definitely takes me to another world
i feel like theres no song like this, its very unique and it makes me feel something
This song feels like walking alone in a warm, rainy forest, along paths that run deep into it. You pass by ferny glades, and a sense of piercing peace and calming isolation passes over you. You never want to leave this dream, you want to become one in the dream to escape reality. The enchanting feeling engulfs you within this dream realm, washing out all worry and all thought with the rain, soft and misty, forming warm droplets on your skin.
yes...
Its a BEAUTIFUL poem...Set to
BEAUTIFUL music ...healing
This song speaks to me of the desire to finally have the power to feel only the emotions you wish to, to take heartbreak and pain and violation, to cultivate it and make it yours. Taking the power away from others to hurt you. Becoming a living, self preserving poison to those who have caused you harm.
This is what is happening to me currently.
I feel so too. I have complex ptsd and hating myself feeling like literal poison was a whole theme throughout my childhood, also being alone with no caregivers, and still being alone 20 years later. This song makes me feel kind of whole and in tune with my past selves, my trauma, the memories, the emptiness, all the pain. I’ve been there for myself my whole life and „Least I‘ll still have company, my inside, tiny poison tree“ describes that perfectly for me, I feel like I can make peace with my poison tree and we are one and always have been? this song feels like my pain made sense when in reality it doesn’t and is just collateral damage.
I think making meaning out of pain is important, even if the pain doesn't make sense. And the fact that its yours and it belongs to you (not the other way around) is a powerful feeling. @@nusskernmischung5428
This song makes me think off all my memories from when i was younger..
For some reason i always thought of this song as a slight reference to suicide. The repetitive melody reminds me of repetitive suicidal thoughts, and then the whole "poison tree growing inside of you" thing makes me think of slowly dying from a suicide method, maybe poisoning.
I love you for giving me that perspective, you have such great imagination
this is my comfort song
Who's here on 2024??
Me
Me
Me❤
❤
ME ❤
Song feels like a its from a different universe that wasn’t supposed to be heard, yet so good
this song feels like sitting in a tree in a forest at night in the rain and you feel everything and nothing at the same time
The song makes you think about a lot of things that you did not notice before
This.
It's like being in a matte blurry cube with your friends, just blocked away from everything outside. Idek what that means but that's the image I get everytime I listen to this
this song for some reason transports me to childhood or puts me back into what my imagination made of darkness melancholy and gloom observed as a child. halloween, cold nights, grey skies, sad confusing emotions
Yesss it sounds like the childhood innocence that makes sadness so confusing when you’re younger
Happy Friday The 13th!
Been listening to this song for weeks now before work and it always makes me feel so calm and magical. A little sad but only because I'm not outside with the trees and frolicking in the grass.
Happy Friday The 13th again!
Still adore this song.
My birth name means poison tree.
This song has a special place In my heart
what is your birth name?
ButterButt?
@@twistedtoo644 nope lmao
@B0L1D no no not really, my birth name is Yvette. It means Yew, Yew=Poison tree
Cooool (ﾉﾟ0ﾟ)ﾉ~ I wish I had a name like that
this song is sad and happy at the same time and i love that about it
This song grew flowers in my heart
WE ARE INFECTING EVERY PONY WITH THIS SONG! 🔥🔥🔥
Its crazy how songs can express so many emotions and bring back memories at the Same time.
I loved this song a lot. When I hear it, I feel a beautiful and calm feeling. I always listen to it when I feel bored. I love it so much and I put it on my alarm clock. I feel a beautiful feeling when I hear it.
The melody has a familiarity to it, it comforts me though I don’t know why.. it makes me miss something, though I don’t know what exactly.
I imagine myself being in a big empty cold room and the darkness travelling towards me. Though the darkness scares me I welcome it’s embrace.
I feel maybe I’ll hear this song in the future and the nostalgic sadness I feel now is for when I think back to these times that are no longer here.
I just hope I’ll be in better and happier times.
skating around unfinished neighborhoods at night to this; was an experience
This song was playing when I had got rejected by the one guy I liked. Ever since, I've been crying to this song late at night.
This song feels like a cloudy/rainy morning, when you are alone in the bed, with the silence around you. You stay there watching out of the window and thinking. This song toatally feels like that 🩶
Just found this song after having to put my dog down two days ago, I don’t care how strong you think you are, that shit will break you. I’ll miss you, buddy ❤️
So happy this song exists
Если это не будет играть на моих похоронах, то я встану и уйду.
😂😂
😂
😂 😂 😂 😂 😂
Don't even understand what you're sayin but 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@rickyhanayamafanai8559 "If it doesn't play at my funeral, then I'll get up and leave."
This song literally makes me cry every time I listen to it
I love you ❤❤
This song is the most existential yet unbothered death I can imagine. And I feel it. Let your branches fork my veins. Take away my blood and bones. No, don’t give those away, how horribly painful must your life be to give those things away so carelessly? Have you given up to such a degree? It reminds me of being cremated and your ashes being spread into the earth to grow into new forms of life, make me feel like something powerful is growing deep inside of me. The pain in these lyrics feels like giving up on a friend who’s given up on living.
This song is so peacefully distributing .
This song is so mysterious and it feels so close to me idk why.
This song is my comfort song the feeling to this song is so nice calm lonely and missing at the same time I have so much emotions idk but it feels great.
я так давно искала эту песню.. боже, я так счастлива, спасибо
This song inspired me to draw what I'd wanna see in my dreams, and where I'd wanna stay forever. I can describe it, but it may not make sense, so I apologize.
So, when you look up, the sky is cloudy, with chances of there being rain or thunder, and the Sun doesn't come out. When we look straight, we will see a tree with a massive hole in the middle, with branches on top, and yes, the branches reach to the sky, making the tree tall. When you look to the left side, you will see bushes far behind the trunk of the tree, nothing else but a trunk, then, when you look right, you will see bushes far behind a tiny tree, with no leaves, a tiny bare tree. You can go to the left again, and notice that a chunk of leaves were cut from the bushes, forming a square gap, enough for us to walk through, and when you walk through, it's a grass field, and the grass is dark and a little moist, and yes, it's windy.
I love this song so much, so simple, yet so exquisite. I see a lot of people showing their interpretationsof the song, so here's mine.
The speaker has trusted too many people, and has been hurt too many times, so they ask the poison tree to grow inside of them and make them stronger, more bitter, give them somethingto hurt people back with. They find this beautiful, and ask the poison tree to replace their weaknesses. But as poison does, it will end up burning not only the people on the outside but also the speaker from the inside,showing how this bitterness can eventually harm the person harbouring it.
this song I can’t describe it it’s just perfect
эта песня заставляет меня вспоминать все хорошие моменты, которые очень быстро меняются один за другим...
У меня тоже самое..
this song makes me think of my childhood
This song make me feel a little bit nostalgic,,

This song makes me cry because I miss someone, I listen to this song because he loves it.
I can listen to it endlessly…
this song is so beautiful
i bawl my eyes out to this song

Play this song and sit alone with a cigarette at night and think about your life and the future.
This is painful and makes me want to sleep in a terrible way 😕
when i first listened to this song i had that one feeling but i just cant describe it
I always start to cry. Idk why
This is just beautiful
this song sounds like exploring a forest on a golder hour in summer
