Wilderman

My brother and I
Built dens at night
Out in the pines grew thicker over time
We took our turns

And we learnt to love our little minds
We walked into the wilderness
Bearing the courage of the Wilderman
They hide in the night in the trees

With silhouette figures
Shapes and shadows they start to surround
We shine our torches
And make monsters with our hands
We weren't afraid because
We taught them how to dance
You're so blind to our way of life

Oh carry on your heavy load
Oh is life a burden on your backbones

If so take control
Of the heel beneath your home
Where the gravity is weaker
And the stars give you hope
If the lines upon your hands
Predict this soul
Why are we waiting?
Why are we wasting time?

My brother and I
We used our minds
We set up traps
To catch the beasts before they bite

They come from under
And they try to take you from your life
We follow footprints, down to the lake
We lost the scent

Two shadows cast from outer space
We passed our curfew
But we knew the Wilderman would wait
Strength in numbers we formed our parade
Over a hilltop and we found him in a cave

We didn't fight because
We taught them to behave
You're so blind when you close your eyes

Oh follow us into the unknown
Oh are you wild or do you walk alone

If so take control
Of the heel beneath your home
Where the gravity is weaker
And the stars give you hope
If the lines upon your hands
Predict this soul
Why are we waiting?
Why are we wasting time?

Further and further watch them run
We proved your wrong we proved you wrong
You lived each day
In your cowardly ways
You lived each day
To deliver me pain

Oh carry on your heavy load
Oh is life a burden on your backbones

If so take control
Of the heel beneath your home
Where the gravity is weaker
And the stars give you hope
If the lines upon your hands
Predict this soul
Why are we waiting?
Why are we wasting time?
