Did you call to me, forest-sister
From your cage of concrete and steel
With your mind a ragged blister
Because they would not let you feel?

Did they bind you up in word-chains
Filled with promises of gold?
Did they teach you all their mind games
As your emotions all went cold?

Do you remember when a child
You would marvel at every tree?
You were strong of will and wild
But you were happy....you were free!

Did this world of questionless answers
Seperate you from your soul?
Did you clutch at shadow-dancers
'Til there was nothing left that's whole?

Was "Love" a word you never learned
While "abuse" you knew too well?
Did they take your heart out to be burned
Beacause the heart-less never tell?

But when the darkeness falls each night
Do you dream you still run and play?
Is that inner howl....that will to fight
Something they'll never take away?

Did you call to me, forest-sister
From your cage of concrete and steel
With your heart an open blister
That refuses not to feel?

You can escape the sadness
See the light....just past that tree?
You can still shed their madness
You can come out and run with me!
