From the woods, from the woods
|
They are coming from the woods
|
Riding horses cloaked in gray
|
Make their way, to my door
|
Lay their boots upon the floor
|
Wash their hands and start to pray
|
But I am gone, I am not there
|
I have followed mountain bears
|
To a cave of deepest home
|
Now I wait, by the mouth
|
As the smoke it flushes out
|
Then I'll slowly drag one home
|
|
All these things are ever lost
|
Stillness has brought my love to cost
|
|
From the woods, from the woods
|
Once a vision from the woods
|
At a point between two tracks
|
Bound by tape, and by wire
|
Bruised and beaten in the fire
|
So the metals faded black
|
Newer ropes, stronger nets
|
Have us plumbing further depths
|
For the wolves we'll never be
|
Should we go, would we die
|
If the weight it was to slide
|
Drag our secrets to the sea
|
|
All these things are ever lost
|
Stillness has brought my love to cost
|
|
And I taste the sulfur on my breath
|
And I see the blood pool on the step
|
The moon so thick, the wounds so fresh
|
And all is well...
|
|
From the woods, from the woods,
|
They are coming from the woods! (Ahhh)
