Into The Wild


I cleaned myself by the river,
I hung my shirt to dry.
I chased away my food for today but, I'll come back tonight

And all of my fears are gone,
It was only just a little bit of fun.
And all of my fears are gone,
But these aches provide the necessary drum.

The silence you seek is born out of
A cold chemistry, and old mourning dove.
If silence is then found, my dear,
Then I break it just to ask,
"Old friend, old friend, my sole accomplice,
Allow me this one chance"

Bang Bang Bang.

How could I have missed it? It was merely thirty feet from my face.
But I swear that we are friends I'll never try that trick again, or so I say.

Now all my friends have gone, they know nothing of this song.

And the holiest will pray they know nothing of this day.

-

I danced a devilish fever, bullied by blistering heat.
I seem so still although I didn't plan to stay long,
and now I'm handicapped by blistered feet.

And all of my fears are gone,
It was only just a little bit of fun.
And all of my fears are gone,
But these aches provide the necessary drum.

The water reflects a bright sunrise,
That leads me to your bright marble eyes,
If time does tell then time has told me of all that's now to come,
So I grab my shirt but forget my shoes - in a haste I start to run.

Crouching down by a bramble bush and determined to not be outdone,
With a deep breath in and in a heartbeat, I pulled the trigger of my gun,

And it went Bang Bang Bang

Shot it down and witnessed an ambitiously delicious charade,
To smoke it was worth a try but now it's fraught with filthy flies it's such a waste.

Now all my friends have gone, they know nothing of this song.

And the holiest will pray they know nothing of this day.
