Forest Circuits

[Verse 1] Old boots on a moss-dark trail Phone dead But the sky’s all pale Breath sharp in the waking chill Heart racing faster than my will I hear a rhythm in the maple roots Flash of crow wings over muddy boots Every broken branch Every snapping twig Feels like a signal Small and big [Chorus] Take me where the forest circuits hum Where the old songs and the new ones run I’m a flicker in the wired wild Ancient heartbeat Glitching child Spinning in the trance of the trees and the hail I’m the folk tale riding on a data trail (oh) Take me where the forest circuits hum [Verse 2] Gran’s voice in the pine wood smoke Said “Listen close to the oaks They joke” Now I’m laughing at the rushing sound Like the earth just dropped a drum underground Flash flood of thoughts in a rushing stream Past and future in a single beam I touch bark Feel a thousand prayers Fold into code Climb thinning air [Chorus] Take me where the forest circuits hum Where the old songs and the new ones run I’m a flicker in the wired wild Ancient heartbeat Glitching child Spinning in the trance of the trees and the hail I’m the folk tale riding on a data trail (yeah) Take me where the forest circuits hum [Bridge] Bare feet Cold stones Breath like steam Name every star in a single dream If I get lost in the rush and the roar Will the path re-load Open one more door? (hey!) [Chorus] Take me where the forest circuits hum Where the old songs and the new ones run I’m a flicker in the wired wild Ancient heartbeat Glitching child Spinning in the trance of the trees and the hail I’m the folk tale riding on a data trail Spinning in the trance till the daylight comes Where the old songs and the new songs run
