Woods Lyrics
I'm up in the woods
I'm down on my mind
I'm building a still
To slow down the time
I'm up in the woods
I'm down on my mind
I'm building a still
To slow down the time
I'm up in the woods
I'm down on my mind
I'm building a still
To slow down the time
I'm up in the woods
I'm down on my mind
I'm building a still
To slow down the time
I'm up in the woods
I'm down on my mind
I'm building a still
To slow down the time
I'm up in the woods
I'm down on my mind
I'm building a still
To slow down the time
I'm down on my mind
I'm building a still
To slow down the time
I'm up in the woods
I'm down on my mind
I'm building a still
To slow down the time
I'm up in the woods
I'm down on my mind
I'm building a still
To slow down the time
I'm up in the woods
I'm down on my mind
I'm building a still
To slow down the time
I'm up in the woods
I'm down on my mind
I'm building a still
To slow down the time
I'm up in the woods
I'm down on my mind
I'm building a still
To slow down the time
I'm up in the woods
I'm down on my mind
I'm building a still
To slow down the time
I'm up in the woods
I'm down on my mind
I'm building a still
To slow down the time
I'm up in the woods
I'm down on my mind
I'm building a still
To slow down the time
I'm up in the woods
I'm down on my mind
I'm building a still
To slow down the time
I'm up in the woods
I'm down on my mind
I'm building a still
To slow down the time
I'm down on my mind
I'm building a still
To slow down the time
I'm up in the woods
I'm down on my mind
I'm building a still
To slow down the time
I'm up in the woods
I'm down on my mind
I'm building a still
To slow down the time
I'm up in the woods
I'm down on my mind
I'm building a still
To slow down the time
I'm up in the woods
I'm down on my mind
I'm building a still
To slow down the time
About
Genius Annotation
Bon Iver’s “Woods” is a paragraph of verse repeated 11 times. The verse could be reciting an abbreviated version of how For Emma, Forever Ago, Bon Iver’s debut album, was created — when Vernon spent the winter of 2006 recording music in a secluded Wisconsin cabin. Vernon’s voice is heavily auto-tuned and momentum and tension build as the song progresses.
The song is most commonly known for being sampled in Kanye West’s “Lost in the World.”
Vernon renamed this song “Still” and recorded a longer, and more musically robust version with his side project band Volcano Choir.
