Get out of the woods goddamnit This is my happy place Following nervous nature Right down to the boulevard I'll never be altogether Again, there's that book I read Get out of the woods goddamnit The krummholz is just in sight Get out of the woods goddamnit The heartbreak is palpable I'll never be excommunicated As long as I keep my head And I will be yours Every dead and darkening day And I will ignore Every thought that gets in the way Illuminate the things we can't quite say Get out of the woods goddamnit These beatings we must survive Too much overanalyzing Return to elusive grey Get out of the woods goddamnit Like stardust, et sacre' bleu In following intuition The dead weight gets left behind Get of the woods goddamnit The tree line is just in sight Get of the woods goddamnit The tree line is just in sight Scratching that itch I'm sick of the mystic convalescent questions We used to breathe in uncomfortable things Because we were too afraid of what our feelings might bring When all of your favorite analogies Are rooted in fallacy How could anything make less sense? Seems like illusions often linger S-S-S-Snapping me out of synch On this uncomfortable ride Drinking strychnine and hoping "Just keep me alive" I fished a sad sick song of recovery Out of hypocrisy While collecting bones Flip me a couple of pills To get over the hill All these feelings gone sideways You try to refill If the shadowy mitten fits Well, take it off And chuck it over the bridge We can always get lost We can sometimes be found Like the scatter of seed Spent on infertile ground You're not waving at all I'm still staring goodbye I'm a memory Sober me up Sh-Sh-Sh-Shoulder the weight of everything that made us We gotta form our own collective point of view You used to live like you had nothing to prove Now you're upended in an instant by imagining moves Closing my mind swimming in what I lack I guess I'll just wait around 'til that knife hits my back
