Howlin' at the night Stakin' claim on my defenses Callin' in the wind Hope that you receive the message I know that you don't wanna be The one who has to deal with me I know you don't So lay me under The ancient trees Let the roots and the branches Devour me Deep and lovely Safe from harm Back into the ether's arms Caught ya in the breeze Felt ya permeate my senses Brought me to my knees The heart gives a sincere confession You know that you don't wanna be The one who has to deal with me You know you don't So lay me under The ancient trees Let the roots and the branches Devour me Deep and lovely Safe from harm Back into the ether's arms Here they come a-knockin' On my willow tree Found me in the garden Where I slept peacefully There's always gonna be somethin' Followin' me So lay me under The ancient trees Let the roots and the branches Devour me Deep and lovely Safe from harm Back into the ether's arms
