Mangrove

Dark woods, tall trees, reaching for me
 I think sunlight's gone
 ♪
 Metacognition, keys in ignition
 Trying to be strong
 ♪
 Blue night, dry leaves, ignite finally
 There's that fire in my heart
 My mind is lightning, tells me to not leave
 But leaving is just the start
 Of something new
 When beasts grow old where do they go?
 Time marks the journey into the mangrove
 And so must I look with my own eyes
 To search for the truth that lies in the unknown
 ♪
 Bitter, strangled, my hair's tangled
 But roots have always been a part of me
 Questions on changing, and we're all still aging
 But I'm not scared to embark
 On something new
 When beasts grow old, where do they go?
 Time marks the journey into the mangrove
 And so must I look with my own eyes
 To search for the truth that lies in the unknown
