It′s midnight on the forest floor
I don’t go down there anymore
My back is bent and my knees are sore
And it′s cold as death on the forest floor
As a younger man, I’d roll in the leaves
I’d let the worms crawl over me
In dirt we′re born and in dirt we′ll die
We’re all just compost, bye and bye
I met a girl by the lightning tree
She liked to roll in the dirt with me
We′d roll in the dirt from dusk ’til dawn
But I don′t know where the hell she’s gone
It′s peaceful where the mushrooms grow
Where the branches creak and the waters flow
Where the litter’s deep beneath the trees
We could lie here for eternity
There are bones of bison buried here
With bones of wolves and bones of deer
And come the snows of January
There’ll be bones of you and bones of me
Bones of you and bones of me
Bones of you and bones of me
It′s midnight on the forest floor
I won′t go down there anymore
My back is bent and my knees are sore
And it’s cold as death on the forest floor
It′s cold as death on the forest floor
It’s cold as death on the forest floor
