[bodytext] => I'm no stranger to the wilderness The all consuming loneliness In which we find we cannot stand The turmoil of this life's demand That we should walk into the dark With nothing to follow except our hearts That our souls be kept upon our sleeves For us to bear and all to see That when the world starts caving in We stand the quake to truly win That when we find we've lost our way We smile and stride towards brighter days But without direction to find the end We fail to find our ways again Lost in the mortal coil's grasp We dive right in and don't look back Pleasure we seek, never to find Leaves us running through this forest blind We take every turn, not watching our steps Angry to find we've run out of breath Throwing on masks to tune out the pain Deafened and blinded by reality's reign Afraid that our wrongs might be our demise Still we continue to live the same lives Never to take a path through the trees That might lead us to all that we aim to be Yet, still running blind, what could it hurt To take that one route still covered in dirt?
