build this forest for keepsakes
they can hear the sounds we make
go cast your spells for barriers
to hold out the ghosts
who threaten to take this ground from us
from underneath us
they'll take us apart
loosen us up by the blood
they'll take us apart
use this forest against us.
they'll take us apart

i saw four faces
looking at me
i say i cannot leave until my body is found
what have these ghosts done to me ?
my arms and knees
i can't leave until my body is found
i saw four faces sitting in the trees
looking at me, staring at me
what do they need?
these arms, these bones, the way i sing
i cannot sleep
its the sounds we make
(they'll take us apart)
(loosen us up by the blood)
(they'll take us apart)
(use this forest against us)

the leaves all fell at once
shriveled and dead
floating to the bottom
rarely safe
finally secure
its gone
cold freezes the heart
nearly resurrected
fearing the most
soldiered on
only for the worst
to be acknowledged
love exists, remain tortured
i could see your face in the moon tonight
no forest could keep us apart
i could burn the trees, to your bright eyes
in the morning, we'll be just fine
remains tortured, love exists
forced to stare into the eyes of that which it won't touch
capable
but will not
scared
for different reasons
lying in the shadows of corpes
branches that permeate the past
i lust for the end
i could see your face in the moon tonight
no forest could keep us apart
i could burn the trees, to your bright eyes
in the morning, we'll be just fine
the fire will die
the smoke will clear
through the ashes i'll search
we will soon be near

i see the ashes
of burning trees
i eradicated the ghosts
from my former house
i found the sounds
on a dirty ground
count the carbon rings
of these fallen trees
dead cicada skins
when it comes to an end
i will find you
when my body is found.

i saw you by the river
with the wind rushing in
you were dancing in the leaves
i could flow with your shadow
standing there alone
casting spells, bone by bone, rituals.
take the river down
watch the trees burn
or take the river down
watch new saints form
and let these demons drown
what was once a a love apart
is now a new love's start
take the river down

we're standing here
watching sound disappear
into air
where we are
no ghosts can go
where we are
we are safe
we're standing here
watching sound disappear
into air
bless be the ground
bless be the sounds
oh its the lights
oh its the trees
we're standing here
watching sound disappear
into air
we will run
like the animals
we'll soon become
oh we will run
we're standing here
watching sound disappear
into air
into air
