The Wilderness

Daydreaming Picturing world peace And a time when mercy Is on everyone's mind. Sad feelings And notions of bad luck Have darkened my outlook And stolen my time. Believe I know, I know it's true We're a step from the animals And conscience has not got much to do With the need to survive. But don't let that break your heart Or poison your innocence When nature won't take your part And doesn't any sense. Cause this is the wilderness Where birds steal from other's nest With no thought for its viciousness No comfort at all. This is the wilderness And I could have you killed I guess And make me like all the rest A slave to it all. I ponder, the fate of the archer Who strikes down God's creatures Without any need. Will the forest Gather together And rise up in anger, That's insane, they're just trees. Kids grow up so damn fast today While most men are children. And ever more rare becomes the case of grace in a woman. But don't let that break your heart Or rotten your innocence When nature won't take your part And doesn't any sense. Cause This is the wilderness Where birds steal from others nest With no thought for its viciousness No comfort at all. Yeah, this is the wilderness And I could have you killed I guess And make me like all the rest A slave to it all.
