Lyrics Lost in the Woods - The Afghan Whigs

Lost in the Woods

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
Reason why?
Start the conversation
Call it occupation — We’ll be here awhile
Baisons now
Before it’s too late
Before you betray yourself
And I, to you
Went to the levy
Dove into the water
Dove into the water
Unchaining my lock
Fate, the believer
Sanctified redeemer
Camouflaged deceiver
So come this, I
But you…
Baby, sitting outside in the cold
I can see that you’re not alone
That’s vanity swallowing you, come 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 until til I know what I need to know
You know me by now
You know me by now
You do…
Baby, fear has a mind of its own
Undress, it’ll seed to/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
Sittin' outside in the cold
I can see that you’re not alone
Calamity founding you
Come see how baby
Sin is a line of a poem
Unknown with a need to know
A throne in a room with a view
But you’re lost in the woods
