Lyrics:
Another era has come to an end You'll return to where it began Wandering at night on Ypres Rd. To determine why you walk in the woods alone A piece of out history I used to honour They disrespected and disgraced They took the ground upon which I walked And rubbed it in my face To me these woods are but a forest of metaphors And nothing more A path through the woods of my past Where I was dragged across a forest floor They breathe in the stagnant air The poison sky shelters them from the sun No exposure, nothing grows No one ever wonders what lies beyond So set in their old ways They could only hope for change Instead they flaunt their stubborn pride Digging their own graves To me these woods are but a forest of metaphors And nothing more A path through the woods of my past Where I was dragged across a forest floor I see the truth hidden between the trees These tough woods are but delicate forest Everyone for themselves in the hallowed name of unity Finding comfort in their misery They were doomed beyond the reach of help Saved only by the unconditional love Of hate for a place they couldn't live without All that I hoped to change Would not be reversed by words alone It would require all of their efforts The lack of which was already set in stone At a time when I could take no more I was dragged across a forest floor Sticks and stones The combined discomfort of hundreds of pains Thorns and Needles I pull them out of my skin While walking home Accept the fact that they've missed your point Conceal your motives and all your thoughts Keep your opinions to yourself Give them exactly what they want There's no hope for understanding Our differences would not be solved For my survival and my sanity In time I learned to have tolerance for you all Bite your tongue until it bleeds Choke down the blood so no one sees Fight the tears Let them fall within While you're here Never let your weakness show These woods are full of hope These woods are where I walk alone Even at times When standing still Strength and speed Still lie dormant within You will see me channel the pain As blood leaves my core and fills my veins These woods are but a forest of metaphors And nothing more The tall trees above They are the ones that exist The fallen leaves are those that have fallen to my feet The trails of broken branches These are the mistakes you make The seeds are the ones to be that I push in the earth With every step I take
