The Woods

I can see night in the daytime

Into the woods, I quietly go

It takes all the strength I have in me

These are the woods, the night of the soul

Oh, yeah

Painful to see love without action

It's painful to see years of neglect

Aching to see all that they see

Still telling lies to the remains of respect

Creatures, we are worth defending

It takes the right word said from the heart

Given to you without ending

Given to you, the purpose of art

Oh, yeah

Thousands of plans, I've made many

I wonder just how many plans I've made

Feeling this mood overtake me

Finally to see the truth as it fades

Out of these woods, won't you take me?

Out of these woods, out of the storm

Oh, sinless child, can you save me?

Oh, guilty man, freedom is yours
