Lyrics
[Intro]
[Violin
Alone
Slow and low]
She waits where the path runs out
Where the trees lean in
Where your name turns heavy
In your own mouth
[Verse 1]
You think it's just branches
Just bark and broken stone
You walk like you're the hunter
Through a place that isn't yours
There’s a nail on every memory
Hung up in the fog
Every secret that you buried
Walks beside you in that bog
[Chorus]
Darkness in the dark woods
You better watch out
It knows every wrong turn
Every locked room in your heart
Darkness in the dark woods
Doesn’t scream
Doesn’t shout
It just waits till you are tired
Then it tears you apart (watch out)
[Verse 2]
I met her by a dead stump
White dress
Bare feet
Still
She said
“You came here once before”
“I remember every thrill”
Her voice like winter water
Her smile two shades too kind
She said
“Lie down here a moment”
“I can crawl inside your mind”
[Chorus]
Darkness in the dark woods
You better watch out
She will wear your first love’s face
She will taste like every doubt
Darkness in the dark woods
Knows your fear by name
Walk in thinking you’re a pilgrim
You crawl out
Just a flame (watch out, watch out)
[Bridge]
[Violin swells
Faint female humming]
There’s a price for every promise
You whispered to the ground
Every time you turned from mercy
It was carefully written down
So when the wind says “come here”
And the branches bow and bend
Understand
That isn’t weather
That is someone calling in
[Chorus]
Darkness in the dark woods
You better watch out
She will kiss you like a blessing
While she writes your story out
Darkness in the dark woods
Feels so gentle
Feels so warm
Till the last light leaves your body
And you vanish in her arms (watch out, my friend)

Style
Muted solo violin intro, slow-blooming strings under male vocals almost spoken, Leonard Cohen-style storytelling. Sparse piano doubles root notes, upright bass rumbles low. On the refrain, ghostly female harmonies float in, drenched in reverb, widening the stereo field. Subtle brush kit and distant choir pads creep in by the last refrain, then everything drops back to just violin and voice for the final warning., deep, slow, female vocals, violin
