I put my head on a hymn book and fell asleep
In the nosebleed pews it was too dark to speak
There was a man spitting fire whose words were familiar to me
He said "friends drag me outta here. Pull this feeling from me."
So I spent some time in the woods. They were dark. They were deep
Longed to come home to you. Lay my lips down to sleep
But I got lost, or was it found, I was running down a dream
It was hard to explain all the pain that was running through me
This is something I am sure will be so hard to endure
And how that whispered breath would grow to get so loud
I try to work as hard as you, hoping that it will cut through, to make you feel so loved and so proud
And now I'm waiting for some strength, something remarkable to change, just like those leaves that turn to gold are then set free
Oh it was hard to explain all the pain that was running through me
Yes it was hard to explain all the pain that was running through me
Yes it was hard to explain all the pain that was running through me
On those nights in the woods, they were dark and they were deep
