In The Woods
Lampshade Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

All around me colours
All display their shine
As I look up to taste the rain
I find beauty on me

Here in the woods
Here in the solitude
The trees are singing your praise

And I join in

As I wade in leaves
Uncover truths unknown

You unveil your face
As I look in mirrors

All around me colours
Everywhere I look, there are vibrant hues

All display their shine
Each one radiates its own brilliance

As I look up to taste the rain
While I lift my face to feel the raindrops on my tongue

I find beauty on me
I realize how the rain makes me beautiful

Here in the woods
Among the trees and wilderness

Here in the solitude
In this peaceful isolation from the world

The trees are singing your praise
Nature itself is lauding your glory

And I join in
I, too, am compelled to celebrate your excellence

As I wade in leaves
While I stroll through the foliage underfoot

Uncover truths unknown
I discover enlightening revelations previously hidden

You unveil your face
You disclose your true self, your essence
