lyrics

I don’t believe you,
Cause if I do, I’ll turn to stone.
Weathered down, to skin and bone.
And let the wind take me away.
I won’t release you,
Cause if I do, I’ll fall back in,
Back to where this all began.
Back to that ole’ wooden grave.
Chorus:
I hear the trees crash to the ground.
As a violent lightning strike resounds.
But I’m not tempted by the fiercest cry.
I’m not contained by the blackest sky.
Verse Two:
From the forest, I listen to angels.
Trying to knock down my ole’ door.
They wanna teach me ‘bout their Lord.
By singing a Hallelujah chorus.
Down through the trees, I see my mother,
walking into the woods.
crying, “If you only would,
sweet child, come out from that forest.”
(Chorus)
I hear the rain, hitting the leaves,
Oh my, if only you could see,
I’m running from my prophecy,
And I won’t return until I’m free.
Ending:
For a second here, I feel at ease.
My heart’s content, My mind at peace.
Don’t forget this memory
(x2)
Don’t forget this memory....
