Lyrics
The Woods
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You have got a lot to learn
Pick your poison and hide behind the fern
And these woods are always dark
This is not where you're supposed to be
If the roots get hold of your heart
They'll never set you free
Free me
Every heart's a broken mind
Releasing
And the sin they haven't tried
Oh, in this society
And the stars they always cry
Devil's propriety
Just don't look him in the eye
Poison words and photographs
Your eyes are killers like the zodiac
And I know the good things never last
Frozen grounds and leafless trees
Your words will haunt you like a frigid breeze
And you know you can't erase the past
Free me
Every heart's a broken mind
Releasing
And the sin they haven't tried
Oh, in this society
And the stars they always cry
Devil's propriety
Just don't look him in the eye
Smoke controls my every turn
Even now this fire is bound to burn
As my time begins to thin the past is all I see
These words will take my skin
And never set me free
Free me
Every heart's a broken mind
Releasing
And the sin they haven't tried
Oh, in this society
And the stars they always cry
Devil's propriety
Just don't look him in the eye
I am lost and I am scared
I am lost and I am scared
I am lost and I am scared
I am lost and I am scared
Free me
Every heart's a broken mind
Releasing
And the sin they haven't tried
Oh, in this society
And the stars they always cry
Devil's propriety
Just don't look him in the eye
