about

Discovering a corpse in the woods. The entire story changes when the identity is revealed.

lyrics

I found myself deep in the wood
The moon unveils a body still

I came across a man who’s breath was absent
Body lifeless, face down in mud
Skin is crawling. Insects feeding
Slowly becoming one with the earth

I found myself deep in the wood
The moon unveils a body still
Bleached with days of acid rain
Sheltered by scavengers

Looking closer I noticed something
familiar in his eyes
My heart’s sinking, I start thinking
That this body is that of my own

I found myself deep in the wood
The moon unveils a body still
Bleached with days of acid rain
Sheltered by scavengers

I saw myself outside my shell
Looking down at my own grave
These figment years of traveling
A dying dream all in vain
