lyrics

I am lost in the dark
how have i come so far
just to lose all sense of direction

show me a star
a flicker from a spark
just a little light for protection

move through the forest
move through the trees
the sun goes down
I fall to my knees
coyotes in chorus
they are coming for me
I’m down on the ground
don’t forget to breathe
eyes in the dark

I was looking for courage
I was looking for love
I was looking for the moment life fits like a glove

maybe the truth is
we won’t ever fit in
And soon as we get there
we’re right back where we began

move through the forest
move through the trees
the sun goes down
I fall to my knees
coyotes in chorus
they are coming for me
I’m down the ground
don’t forget to breathe
eyes in the dark

I am a stranger here
the path has disappeared
I cannot see them but the see me

move through the forest
move through the trees
the sun goes down
I fall to my knees
coyotes in chorus
they are coming for me
I’m down on the ground
don’t forget to breathe
eyes in the dark
