Rings

[Verse 1]

Sawdust in your lungs, chainsaw in the dark

Generations carved and cut into the bark

Every season bleeds, every silence stings

We are what we took just hollow rings



[Pre 1]

Count the circles, count the years we burned

Every ring a scar, every scar unlearned



[Hook]

Rings, rings inside the wood

We took what we never understood

Rings, rings beneath the ground

Now the forest makes no sound



[Verse 2]

Roots entangled deep with everything we hid

Ash remembers names, ash remembers what we did

Fire speaks the truth that no one ever sings

We are what we left just burning rings



[Pre 2]

Count the circles, count the cost we made

Every ring a ghost, every ghost we gave



[Hook]

Rings, rings inside the wood

We took what we never understood

Rings, rings beneath the ground

Now the forest makes no sound



[Bridge]

Seedlings cracking concrete they remember

Chlorophyll knows what we chose to forget



[Hook]

Rings, rings inside the wood

We plant what we finally understood

Rings, rings above the ground

Let the forest make its sound
