For the Wild

You're feeling like you heard this all before Like every word's a conspiracy of cliché White boy strumming on his guitar Has got nothing relevant in his heart to say To this world of money and numbers Where we reduce every choice To a binary between boredom and hate No you don't want to live that life Open your mind, open your borders Stand naked to your nature's embrace I'm appalled by the sound Coming from the radio Has life tamed our soul What happened to Rock & Roll Where the rhythm flows over you What's up with these people? Why can't they satisfy me? Must we ask less of people? And more of machines? You tell me you are the one The last man in our history You have a choice Now man tell me what you prefer Do I cut myself off Or live by the river Simmer down Nothing lasts forever Break like waves in the sea As the river floods the land Can't tame the wild in me Can't tame the wild in me What's up with you people? You're more than machines Sad eyed saviour You don't know how to be happy For heaven sake there's nothing to be so sad You tell me you are the one The last man in our history You have a choice Now man tell me what you prefer Do I cut myself off Or live by the river Simmer down and stand up The river runs, regardless Simmer down and stand up For the wild, for the wild Simmer down and stand up The river runs, regardless Simmer down and stand up For the wild, for the wild Silence is the song of your deepest nature Where life transcends your shop bought personality I look around me and see so many people Who seem to have lost their basic humanity We rise and fall like rhythms of the ocean Only the fool would weep Trying to understand what a wave means So why do we live in mind Constructed cages of self persecution Life is an eternal revolution Chaos reigns supreme For the wild Wild Wild Wild Wild Simmer down and stand up The river runs, regardless Simmer down and stand up For the wild, for the wild Simmer down and stand up The river runs, regardless Simmer down and stand up For the wild, for the wild
