Into the woods
By Gee848
In the heart of the Forest, where the wild things grow,
I learned to escape, let my worries go.
With each step in the trees, the shadows would fade,
But the echoes of my childhood, they would never trade.
Momma’s voice was thunder, dark clouds in her mind,
I wore her storms like armour, just trying to be kind.
But who’s gonna hold me when the nights come alive,
I drifted to the forest, to feel like I could thrive.
[Chorus]
So I’ll run into the woods, where the whispers heal,
Away from the chaos, it’s the solace I feel.
Wandering through the twilight, the secrets I keep,
In the arms of the giants, I find my peace.
Oh, the Forest knows my pain, it understands,
When my momma couldn't be there, it held my trembling hands.
[Verse 2]
She’d mirror her demons, reflecting the hurt,
Her laughter was fleeting, where happiness lurked.
But deep in my heart, I craved for the sun,
Not the shadows of sorrow, where the battles are won.
And in every leaf's rustle, I found my release,
Watching the sunlight weave stories of peace.
So I’d escape to the branches, where the wild things play,
Fleeing from the anguish that stained my everyday.
[Chorus]
So I’ll run into the woods, where the whispers heal,
Away from the chaos, it’s the solace I feel.
Wandering through the twilight, the secrets I keep,
In the arms of the giants, I find my peace.
Oh, the New Forest knows my pain, it understands,
When my momma couldn't be there, it held my trembling hands.
[Bridge]
I remember the days when hope felt so small,
Momma’s shadow lingered, haunting my call.
But the forest would cradle me, wrap me in light,
Where every tall pine stood, reaching for the night.
Each step through the ferns, I’d whisper my fears,
To the wind and the trees, pouring out my tears.
[Chorus]
So I’ll run into the woods, where the whispers heal,
Away from the chaos, it’s the solace I feel.
Wandering through the twilight, the secrets I keep,
In the arms of the giants, I find my peace.
Oh, the New Forest knows my pain, it understands,
When my momma couldn't be there, it held my trembling hands.
[Outro]
Now I carry that forest, within every beat,
A sanctuary of memories, where the light is sweet.
And though the past lingers, it’s a part of my song,
With the New Forest by my side, I know I’ll be strong.
So I’ll run into the woods, let my spirit take flight,
A child of the forest, forever in the light.
