[Verse 1]
When the headlines hit like hail
And every small thing feels too big to carry
Phone buzzing like a swarm around my head
Yeah, it all gets loud and scary
Keys in the truck, just drive
Past the last red light on that dirt road bend
Where the pavement quits and the pines lean in
Like they're glad to see you again
[Chorus]
When the world feels heavy, step into the trees
Let the green wrap around you like your grandma's quilt sleeves
The forest has extra oxygen and extra peace to share
So breathe in slow, let it fill you up, leave your hurt down there
Yeah, the forest has extra oxygen and extra peace to share
[Verse 2]
Boots start kicking up that dust
Til it turns to needles, rocks, and roots
Sunlight dripping through the branches
Painting gold on worn-out boots
Hear a creek keep steady time
With that old heart thumping in your chest
Sit down on a fallen log
Tell the Lord what's left
[Chorus]
When the world feels heavy, step into the trees
Let the green wrap around you like your grandma's quilt sleeves
The forest has extra oxygen and extra peace to share
So breathe in slow, let it fill you up, leave your hurt down there
Yeah, the forest has extra oxygen and extra peace to share
[Bridge]
You don't have to say a word (mm, yeah)
Just let the wind do the talking (oh)
Every breath out here
Feels a little like walking away from your fear
[Chorus]
When the world feels heavy, step into the trees
Let your shoulders fall easy, let your worries bleed
The forest has extra oxygen and extra peace to share
So breathe in slow, let it fill you up, leave your hurt down there
Yeah, the forest has extra oxygen and extra peace to share
