lyrics

When I go back to the place where my mind became wild
And my heart became stubborn and soft
I find nothing at all but those old rabbit holes
Their embrace is so empty and cold

When I go back to the woods where I was saved from death
On account of my two little hands
I was shown a great hall deep below the ground
With old friends from the stories I’ve known

Well I came back to see if they’d smile upon me
But the rabbits were frozen in time
The foxes moved out and the old man had drowned
Calling desperately all of the time

And now here I sit on this bright summer’s eve
The colors they flash all around
Lucy gets drunk while john rolls on the ground
As I look for some way to come down
As I look for some way to come down

Well so what, there are lights flashing on in the woods
I can’t seem to care anymore
The colors flash on in the grey morning now
As I look for some way to come down
