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
Bright eyed spirits guided me home
I went walking in the woods today
found a path that led me astray
I couldn't leave it
I stripped down naked and fell to my knees
I washed my sins 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
trees looked wicked by candlelight
I heard them whispering your name
the dreams of mankind burning bright
It was so beautiful
I wondered if I'd ever learn
But how will we explain the mistakes we made
when my fear will surely return
Bright eyed spirits guided me home
