The Wilderness - Colin Smith |
[00:00.48] |
Daydreaming |
[00:04.04] |
Picturing world peace |
[00:07.23] |
And a time when mercy |
[00:10.79] |
Is on everyone's mind. |
[00:14.88] |
Sad feelings |
[00:18.57] |
And notions of bad luck |
[00:22.25] |
Have darkened my outlook |
[00:24.63] |
And stolen my time. |
[00:29.67] |
Believe I know, I know its true |
[00:33.11] |
We're a step from the animals |
[00:36.99] |
And conscience has not got much to do |
[00:40.61] |
With the need to survive. |
[00:44.55] |
But dont let that break your heart |
[00:48.05] |
or poison your innocence |
[00:51.73] |
When nature wont take your part |
[00:55.39] |
And doesnt any sense. |
[00:59.14] |
Cause this is the wilderness |
[01:02.52] |
Where birds steal from others nest |
[01:06.02] |
With no thought for its viciousness |
[01:09.76] |
No comfort at all. |
[01:14.14] |
This is the wilderness |
[01:17.33] |
And I could have you killed I guess |
[01:21.26] |
And make me like all the rest |
[01:24.95] |
A slave to it all. |
[01:29.27] |
I ponder, the fate of the archer |
[01:36.02] |
Who strikes down God's creatures |
[01:39.76] |
Without any need. |
[01:43.81] |
Will the forest |
[01:47.22] |
Gather together |
[01:50.47] |
And rise up in anger, |
[01:53.16] |
Thats insane, they're just trees. |
[01:58.25] |
Kids grow up so damn fast today |
[02:01.43] |
While most men are children. |
[02:05.68] |
And ever more rare becomes the case of grace in a woman. |
[02:13.01] |
But dont let that break your heart |
[02:16.70] |
or rotten your innocence |
[02:20.38] |
When nature wont take your part |
[02:24.01] |
And doesnt any sense. |
[02:27.76] |
Cause This is the wilderness |
[02:31.07] |

[02:38.58] |
No comfort at all. |
[02:42.08] |
Yeah, this is the wilderness |
[02:45.89] |
And I could have you killed I guess |
[02:49.58] |
And make me like all the rest |
[02:53.52] |
