Forests of fury, kindling of fear
see how dark the woods have grown after all these years
and now they're coming down around me
and I am rising up
like a lily from the shadows
glistening and perfumed
the only way out is through

All the detours taken never lead you home
what a maze you find yourself in
and still alone
you thought it would be easy
so the truth eluded you
the only way out is through

Baptism of fire, all happening within
illusions burn like tall grass in a wild and wreck less wind
and now they're coming down around me
and I am rising up
like a great bell resurrected
ringing loud and true
the only way out is through
