The Woods

I went walking in the woods today

Found a path that led me astray

I couldn't leave it

On the bank of a river beneath the trees

I stripped down naked and fell to my knees

I washed my sins away

Morning came and gave the truth away

I wondered if I'd ever return

But as you say, time will pave the way

I just sit and watch our kingdom burn

I went walking in the woods tonight

Trees looked wicked by candlelight

I heard them whispering your name

Far away I saw the city lights

The dreams of mankind burning bright

It was so beautiful

Morning came and took my fear away

I wondered if I'd ever learn

But how will we explain the mistakes we made

When my fear will surely return

I went walking on my own and

Bright eyed spirits guided me home

I went walking in the woods today...
