Where Trees Remember

[Verse 1] Ancient trees twist overhead, Where shadow-dancers make their bed, Something watches through the leaves, As reality starts to cleave. In this forest, time stands still, Where echoes mock your fading will, The mist writhes like serpent's breath, Drawing circles of living death. [Chorus] Down in the hollow, where nightmares breed, The Old Ones whisper what they need, Their voices crawl inside your mind, Leaving sanity far behind. (Far behind...) [Verse 2] Footprints form in empty air, Dead leaves rise like phantom prayer, The ground beneath begins to sing, With secrets that the darkness brings. Eyes gleam red between the trees, As madness drifts upon the breeze, The forest heart begins to beat, Your soul, its hunger needs to eat. [Bridge] "The woods are hungry... The woods are old... The woods remember What stories haven't told..." [Verse 3] Branches reach with grasping hands, As reality shifts like wind-blown sand, The boundary thins between the worlds, As cosmic horror slowly unfurls. Ancient gods stir in their sleep, While shadow-children slowly creep, The forest claims another mind, Leaving empty flesh behind. [Final Chorus] Down in the hollow, where nightmares breed, The Old Ones whisper what they need, Your mind fragments like morning frost, In these woods, you're already lost. (Already lost...) [Outro] "Welcome to the hollow... Where the trees remember your name... Where the darkness knows your face... Where you'll always stay..."
