“The song has layers of meaning to me, personally, but I suppose what is most easily gleaned is that it’s about growing apart from someone or something that is/was dear to you – then realizing what you have lost, and wishing that you could go back.” -Wolfgun via Twitter (1, 2)
The Woods Lyrics
[Verse 1]
At the first I wasted all my life
I hid in darkened rooms
I didn't know what waited on the other side
Of where I knew
At the first I kept my silent hopes
I hid them in my heart
From the people who were all afraid
To tear the world apart
But I'm not
[Verse 2]
At the first I crossed unwritten lines
I heard unspoken dreams
Come from places that I'd never been
With long forgotten kings
I saw the wishes from the falling stars
I felt them hit the sea
While the light came from the rising sun
And scattered through the leaves
And I saw
[Verse 3]
In the woods I found a faithful friend
Who spent their days with me
We laughed and cried and shared our hopes
Before I had to leave
Then the sound of crowds came rolling through
I woke up in the streets
With the people who were all afraid
To live and seek their dreams
And I said
[Chorus]
I can't wait until I find you again
Where have you been?
I miss you
Carry me until I find the time to spend
In the trees again
I can hear you calling
