The Fatima Mansions - Walk In The Woods lyrics
[The Fatima Mansions - Walk In The Woods lyrics]
A walk in the woods after a storm
Through waves of steam and
Graveyard gas come overground
The unwalked path, the dimming light
Not day or night
Just always while life remains on hold
Everybody's sorry, everybody's sorry
If words are to be believed
World without mercy, world which deserts me
Faces gone, just trunks of trees
Get it together, get
It together-gether, yeah, yeah
You can do and say whatever you like
I can take it, I can listen
But I've only got the one life
What am I going to do?
Every year find another place?
Get out, get out, get out, get out of my face
A walk in the woods at the birth of night
Where soft shapes come to
Fill the glowing space
And now the book in my
Hand is closed and sealed
To wander blind is all this walker needs
Everybody's sorry, everybody's sorry
Well, you can keep your form of words
World with an exit, I'm there and I know it
It takes me in it's arms
It takes me in it's loving arms
Get it together, get
It together-gether, yeah, yeah
You'll know me by the knives
Sticking out of my back
I'm a traitor to my friends and race
A traitor to my class
Want to see my blood? Well
There won't be long to wait
Maybe by then you'll get
Your cover story straight
A walk in the woods after a storm
Through waves of steam and
Graveyard gas come overground
The unwalked path, the dimming light
Not day or night
Just always while life remains on hold
Everybody's sorry, everybody's sorry
If words are to be believed
World without mercy, world which deserts me
Faces gone, just trunks of trees
Get it together, get
It together-gether, yeah, yeah
You can do and say whatever you like
I can take it, I can listen
But I've only got the one life
What am I going to do?
Every year find another place?
Get out, get out, get out, get out of my face
A walk in the woods at the birth of night
Where soft shapes come to
Fill the glowing space
And now the book in my
Hand is closed and sealed
To wander blind is all this walker needs
Everybody's sorry, everybody's sorry
Well, you can keep your form of words
World with an exit, I'm there and I know it
It takes me in it's arms
It takes me in it's loving arms
Get it together, get
It together-gether, yeah, yeah
You'll know me by the knives
Sticking out of my back
I'm a traitor to my friends and race
A traitor to my class
Want to see my blood? Well
There won't be long to wait
Maybe by then you'll get
Your cover story straight
A walk in the woods after a storm
