Lost in the Woods Songtext
von The Afghan Whigs

Surprise, surprise
I′ll have you know
I've come to see you die
I′m hard to find
You'll never tell
You know me by now
You know me by now
You do
You do

Raison why
Start the conversation
Call it occupation
We'll be here awhile
Raison now
Before it′s too late
Before you betray yourself
And I to you
To you


Went to the levy
Dove into the water
Dove into the water
Unchaining my light
Fate, the believer
Sanctified redeemer
Camouflaged deceiver
So covetous, I
But you
You

Baby
Sitting outside in the cold
I can see that you′re not alone
That's vanity swallowing you
Come and see
That, baby
Soon she′ll be picking her teeth

Not dead
I'll see you all again
In time we all descend
Not yet
And I won′t leave
'Til I know what I need to know
You know me by now
You know me by now
You do
You do


Baby
Fear has a mind of its own
Undress
It′ll seep in your bones
And I see how it waited for you
And I see how it baited the hook
Now you're gone
And you ain't coming back

Sitting outside in the cold
I can see that you′re not alone
Calamity following you
Come and see
Now baby
Sin is a line of a poem
Unknown with a need to be known
A throne in a room with a view
But you′re lost in the woods

Baby
Sweet maybe
