[OPENING] The light that trickles through the trees casting rays along the breeze guides the way through the darkened grove, catch the scent of prey as we run the day away hunting after what you cannot say Dodge the verse and fade away [VERSE 1] Growing silence fear is mindless preserving what you hide is pointless I will tear the pain away rend and break your body as you lay to learn to be more then what you know [CHORUS] Chasing spirits thought the forest growing deeper in the moments after catching souls left unspoken gaining insight into days they had after ripping out its hollow all the fear they had was shallow giving paths they dare not follow to the endless nights of bygone times [VERSE 2] Down and through the burrows and out into the gallows hanging for the world to see I'll carve out your destiny and take you back through to the weeds take in everything you see from the smallest tree to leaves it aids you to the end of me [PRE-CHORUS] Prey in the wood I'll stand stern where you stood giving reverence to the life you had bringing distant rays of light to gather breaking through your night to lift your soul up towards the sun [CHORUS] Chasing spirits thought the forest growing deeper in the moments after catching souls left unspoken gaining insight into days they had after ripping out its hollow all the fear they had was shallow giving paths they dare not follow to the endless nights of bygone times [BRIDGE] As I lay my head to rest upon the body of the past I hear a single tiny tune regretting what I knew the shadows of the truth that lead my harrowed youth chasing what clamored through all the empty rooms now the wood do call my name to rush through boughs untamed to hunt through the night hunting for the light [FINAL VERSE] Footsteps echo against the sound of what I finally found the last deep breath of life brings the holy night under pale white moons I chase all through the doom finally to realize what haunt the darkened skies
