lyrics

As I run, through the trees
I'll leave it all behind
Except these fears, and doubts that still
Haunt my frame of mind.

I've made a terrible mistake
And all I can now do is run
To the trees and hope that they accept me
since now no human can or will
Wander the forest of the pines
The wooded gateway closes behind
Light fades as I leave
the world of man is too unkind

I cast off the vestiges of my humanity as I dance with the leaves

Der Verwandlung beginnt im eigenen Augen, durch eichenen herzen empfang ich die seelen und stimmen die Bäumen

Undergo this Metamorphosis (x2)
As roots curl round my ankles
And bark crawls over my skin
Truth be told I'll trust in undergrowth (x2)
Rather than these demons
Who're poisoning my thoughts

As I evolved from my shell
I grew apart and into
A ghost among the trees
with roots and vines and leaves
Vehemence burns in my core
I set my wooden eyes to the sun
Ablaze my oaken heart
As the woodlands spring to life

I cast off the vestiges of my humanity as I dance with the leaves.
