I fear I am lost forever In this dark forest of mine I've wandered resigned Hoping to stumble on a sign From the ground mist rises I know not where I stand The roots of the land Keep me beyond my own command This canopy that blocks out the sun Leaves me undone Preventing a birds eye view Now I desire that no forest fire Will ever return me to the soil All these things behind me I do not recognise my way So here I will stay And watch as the autumn leaves decay And the wind, she whispers "Give yourself to the ground" How can I resist her? To this place I am bound This view of the world it takes me Embraces me here like a vine To stay for all time As forest and me we intertwine But naturally all things being one My daughters and sons Will line up to take their place Under the sky I cannot deny This dark dark forest is mine Now I see This dark dark forest is me
