The Forest Knows My Name

The Forest Knows My Name Lyrics

Noise too loud and light too bright,
The air is thick, my skin feels tight.
I need a place where I can breathe,
A quiet world that waits for me.

Branches bend and rivers sigh,
The stars are steady in the sky.
Alone, but never lost, I know—
There’s somewhere safe for me to go.

This hidden place, it sets me free,
The quiet hums my harmony.
When I need to hide away…
The forest knows my name.

The moss is soft, the rocks are still,
The silence bends to fit my will.
The shadows keep me safe, unseen,
Sanctuary, I can dream.

Branches bend and rivers sigh,
The stars are steady in the sky.
Alone, but never lost, I know—
There’s somewhere safe for me to go.

This hidden place, it sets me free,
The quiet hums my harmony.
When I need to hide away…
The forest knows my name.

Alone is not an empty sound,
It’s where my truest peace is found.
The world may roar, the night may fall,
But here I feel a part of all.

This hidden place, it sets me free,
The quiet hums my harmony.
When I need to hide away…
The forest knows my name.


When I need to hide away…
The forest knows my name.

The Forest Knows My Name is a song for anyone who’s ever felt overwhelmed by the world. Especially for the deep-feelers, there’s a relief in knowing you have a sanctuary, whether it’s an actual woodland path, a quiet room, or simply a breath you claim for yourself. This song is about that secret refuge: the place that welcomes you exactly as you are. A reminder that solitude isn’t emptiness; it’s restoration. And when you return to that place, it feels like the earth itself whispers your name.
