The fever went away so quickly
The heat felt good – like someone kissed me
I fell through dark and into darkness
My hands reach out, not sure I want this

My skin is fire and flames
I'm so changed and strange

The wild thing in the woods
It was the wild thing in the woods
It's not what I already lost
It's what I'm going to loose
To the wild thing in the woods

I've got open arms like a broken puppet
Falling backwards into the forest
Nothing here to see but shadows
The sound of souls begging to move on

It's an angels wish
It's myself I can't fix

The wild thing in the woods
It was the wild thing in the woods
It's not what I already lost
It's what I'm going to loose
To the wild thing in the woods
Yeayeayeayea the wild thing in the woods

It's the wild thing – I'm the wild thing in the woods
