The Twig & The Tree Lyrics - Thrash Rock Legacy - Mounties

1 

In the wilderness 

you run 'til you scream 

(The boy and the gun) x2 repeated through verse 

You lay on spruce bows 

and you drink from the stream 

You've seen the future go 

from good to obscene 

Your K9 senses leave 

leave a scent on the trees 

2 

Your stone-age instinct 

knows the winter is here 

(The boy and the fox) x2 repeated through verse 

Cat got snowshoes 

dragged away in the clear 

Beaver pelt offering 

to show you're sincere 

In minus 40 

air is perfectly clear 

Shoot 'em my boy x16 

3 

The fall is coming 

and the lichens rejoice 

(The twig and the tree) x2 repeated through verse 

The intensity of hunger 

leaves you without a choice 

You touch the berries 

to your lips for the moist 

The tired moon light 

speaks to your inner voice 

Shoot 'em my boy x16 

This is where he almost died x4
