Out in the woods, it's dark except the starlight
Things getting heavy in the deep of the night
Central PA feels more like Georgia
In the late summer, humid late summer
You know I've made some mistakes, this is no exception
Hungry bears they follow me, these things are getting heavy
I've made up my mind but my mind is the problem
I swear this is the last time I'll wrestle with this demon
crossfade to the lion and the lamb.
cue the new love. cue the new jamb.
I'm in over my head, I'm off the straight and narrow
The buzzards circle overhead to feed right off my marrow
Oh Lord, can you save me? Lord, can you hear me?
Will impunity follow, will you forgive me tomorrow?
Now i'm deep up in these woods with things getting heavy
I'm at a loss for words, I'm looking for the words
And you, my love
It's my weakness that you carry on your way to die
It's on your way to die
crossfade to the lion and the lamb.
cue the new love. cue the new jamb.
