Once-when-I-was-alone, staring nature
right between the eye
twas all I could do, not to panic there
break down and cry
I’m-soaked-to-the-bone, when everywhere
else is parched and dry
dripping in fear, my eyes manic as
dark clouds obscure the sky
And if you could, you know you would
Investigate the thing in the woods
You know you should, have stayed and stood
Against the thing that lives in the woods
Hiding-under-a-stone, I discovered
a bird that ought to fly
it was so scared, it took titanic effort to
get-back-to the sky
Here-comes-the-cyclone, causing forest,
destruction in mid-July
the world (becomes) darkly satanic
as nature decides who will die
And if you could, you know you would
stop the thing, livin’ in the woods
and eventually sit down and cry
You know you should, have stayed and stood
Against the thing, livin in the woods
and honestly say you tried
