The Woods by Olivver the Kid Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 2015

[Intro]
Waking up in the middle of the woods
Naked in the middle of the woods

[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus](x2)
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?

[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus](x2)
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?

[Verse 3]
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

[Chorus](x5)
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?
