GREEN LUNG LYRICS

1. Green Man Rising

I’ve seen the Green Man
With his face of leaves
Carved on the church wall
High in the eaves

As I passed by him
Heard him call my name
Can this be real?
Or am I insane?

Ooh, now I can see
I am the sacrifice
Ooh, now I believe
The Green Man shall rise

Into the wildwood
I walk entranced
Deep in the shadows
I hear them chant

Compelled by his power
To my forest tomb
I let out a mad laugh
I know I am doomed

Ooh, now I can see
I am the sacrifice
Ooh, now I believe
The Green Man shall rise

Ooh, under the trees
I am the sacrifice
Ooh, blood on the leaves
The Green Man shall rise

I stand in the circle
Watching as he takes form
As life drains from my body
I see the Green Man reborn

Ooh, now I can see
I am the sacrifice
Ooh, now I believe
The Green Man shall rise

Ooh, under the trees
I am the sacrifice
Ooh, blood on the leaves
The Green Man shall rise

Green Man rising...

2. Freak On A Peak

Spent all winter waiting
For the sun to arise
Longing for isolation
In my perch on high

Dreaming of the mountains
The whispering pines
Soon as the summer comes
I will take back what’s mine

Now I’m back on the track
Freak on a peak
Just me and my pack
Freak on a peak
Now I’m homeward bound
Freak on a peak
No use down on the ground
Freak on a peak

Tried to live the city life
Didn’t do me no good
Tried to be civilised
But I never could

Never felt satisfaction
Never felt at home
Til I went to the woods
And I lived alone

Now I’m back on the track
Freak on a peak
Just me and my pack
Freak on a peak
Now I’m homeward bound
Freak on a peak
No use down on the ground
Freak on a peak

No sense of self
No sense of time
Think I finally found
Some peace of mind

Free as a bird
Like an orphan child
Couldn’t help but answer
The call of the wild

Up here in my tower
I got my own space
Feel like I dropped out
Of that human race

No hope for mankind
No, they’ll never learn
I’m going to sit back
And watch the world burn

No sense of self
No sense of time
Think I finally found
Some peace of mind

Free as a bird
Like an orphan child
Couldn’t help but answer
The call of the wild
