We'll go together into the dark woods Sinking with wise old tree roots How I want to unlearn I don't want old branches no more Every tooth is broken And all of the flesh is burnt

I've wounded my side And I've wound in my hide

Don't ask what is the price of my hand Would you be queen of my land? When everyone else is gone

Fire, making my way much harder All of this time I'm after Images of my soul

And I've wounded my side And I've wounded my hide And I've got snakes in my eyes And I've got snakes in my mind, mind

Peace of my mind is cast in iron Come on now baby, ride on Down to the root of life, life

No, no, don't give me more of your glow Come on now baby, ride on Down the joys of my night, night

And I've wounded my side And I've wounded my hide And I've got snakes in my eyes And I've got snakes in my mind, mind

No, no, ..., die I'm not too far down I'm not too far gone
