We hold on and stay up all night Strayed a little far from the beaten path I saw my reason lifting off the ground And I heard you whisper I'm gone No time to question the values or reasons why I'm just not living the wild life I wish I wish I could stay here stay here for days Got a lot on your plate got to get on my way I picture a conscious feeling Better than high I'm just not living the wild life And if I learn to sleep I will learn to tell time And when I tell time I sleep all the while When I sleep I might hope to survive The losing of you In the midst of the wild life
