Waking up in the middle of the woods
Naked in the middle of the woods
I've seen all the wolves in this place
I've been a wolf in this place
I've been watching the rats in the race
I was a rat in the race
I've seen the love in me fade
I am no longer here: The place I fear, the place that fills me
You are: The words I feel, the knot that heals, the place I kneel to

Tell me that you want to leave with me
Tell me that you want to go with me
Don't you want to get out of here?
Out of the woods?

We walk down to the ocean, your sarcasm heavy laden on me
Your eye contact leaves a message
My love stacked on top of the trees
You brought me down to the river & you pushed me in hoping that the white rapids would challenge my ability to swim
You are the words I feel
You're how I deal
You're who I run to

Tell me that you want to leave with me
Tell me that you want to go with me
Don't you want to get out of here?
Out of the woods?

I walk you down to the willow to show you the leaves
I say 'they are just like us, ever changing into the breeze'
You pick up two handfuls
You tell me 'they're all dried up & dead'
You know that's nothing like us
We'll live forever instead

Tell me that you want to leave with me
Tell me that you want to go with me
Don't you want to get out of here?
Out of the woods?
