When I came to you
was it real or just a dream?
What you did for me
was it honest or just a scheme?
You said take my hands,
and lets wander in the woods
Wildflowers on the path,
you told me all the rules
Casted over me
like ivy on a tree
A puzzle piece to peace
like an inward turning key
And once the door is opened
you can never go an take that back
But through the clearing here
you can find the middle path
x3 You don't know what you don't know
Three-hundred miles beneath your feet
Mycelium meshing all around us
Close your eyes and feel it speak

Do you think that you could be
our scout outside up in the tree?
Its dark outside, the rain comes down
You climb right up without a sound
Do you think that you could be
the purple sky thats rippling
The mushrooms grow under the ground
you feel them now, they're calling out
Do you think that you can see
the light inside thats questioning
The wind picks up, begins to howl
When everything stops, you're flying now
x2 Can I find a place where I belong?
Can I find a place when its all gone?
The magic's taking over me,
my mind and body dissolving
The lightening strikes, the embers burn
a fire starts up from the ground
Do you think that could ride
the darkest night up to the sky?
The water flows under the ground
You feel it now, its calling out
Do you think that you could hold
whats precious now and let it go?
The tears come down in a great sigh
Its blooming now from the inside
x2 Can I find a place where I belong?
Can I find a place when its all gone?

You, you are like a leaf
flying in the wind
I could never stop you
And I, I am like a fox
waiting in the grass
underneath the full moon
Got chills running down spine
Underneath the sky
when I felt a great truth
I cried like a little child
thinking of your love
and all the pain I caused you
And the tracks in the dirt show
how I'm running from my devils
And I, I just wanna let go,
like the hills changing all their colors
You, you are like the weeds
twisting through the floor
breaking up the static
And I, I am like a pond
bubbling in the dark
waiting for the magic
Got cracks running through my mouth
lightening for a tongue
striking through the softness
I'm lost where I grew up
tripping over stumps
mourning for the forest
x2And the tracks in the dirt show
how I'm running from my devils
And I, I just wanna let go,
like the hills changing all their colors

x2Just because it tastes good
doesn't mean you need to eat it
Just because it looks good
doesn't mean ya really seen it
Just because it sounds good
doesn't mean it needs believing
Just because it feels good
doesn't mean it needs repeating
I was so gone
I know because
I left the place
my body was
Faces come out
from in the trees,
laughing among
the hidden leaves
I was waiting for a summoning
of a spirit in me
She was someone I grew up with
but she got greedy
I helped her in my own way
licking her wounds
She's walking down her own path
so she can find the truth

Awakening

You waited in the middle of the night
white hair surrounded by the moon
When you opened up third eye
from your tongue a forest was bloomed
And all the plants and animals
did the best they could to survive
From the poison boiling in the center
coming out from the middle of your mind
Wish I could back down
My head won't leave the clouds
A plant's roots in the ground
It can not wander round
After the sleeping pill
a stone upon a hill
The clouds wave at the grass
he is not coming back
Just because it tastes good
doesn't mean you need to eat it
Just because it feels good
doesn't mean it needs repeating
Just because it looks good
doesn't mean ya really seen it
Just because it sounds good
doesn't mean it needs believing
