Wild in the Woods Lyrics

Wild in the woods of love
We harm those whom we adore
And contrary to all good intentions
We suffocate them in an alarming embrace.

Listen child, try to understand,
All is not what it appears to be in the world at hand.
Here dreams are bought and sold for a price.
The truth a burden to keep for the rest of your life.

These paths that we have chosen
Can only lead to fear and despair
So we learn from and experience the corporeal,
All is hidden in hidden meanings.
All can be learned from within.
We are all brothers and sisters in spirit.

Wild in the woods of love
We harm those whom we adore
And contrary to all good intentions
We suffocate them in an alarming embrace.

this competes with Richard Thompson's song "The End of the Rainbow" for the most cynical, bitter disquisition on human relationships ever put to music.
