Calling to the wild
Are we all living in our fantasies?
Is the world we live in the one we perceive to be?
And if it is, should we feel so proud?
I pray the dreamers can dream a way out,
We got to find more reasons to have our heads in the clouds.
Find more reasons to have your head in the clouds.
Before the darkness blinds the savage beast
Freed from the cage and the rage is released
The moon will let out a deep evil howl and
I'll find a reason to have my head in the clouds
I'm calling to the wild
We've been caged up like beasts in a zoo
In this made up paradise built for the few
I'm calling to the wild.
I'm calling to the wild to take me in,
Let my inner child bear an honest grin
Take me to a land as old as time,
Before the world was planned out in lines
I'm calling to the Wild!
I dream of a fire burning all night,
Where we take refuge in the flames
Before cell phones, bank loans & satellites
When there was no such word as ''tame''
I’m calling, calling to the wild
