Don't fear me, I'm just a man.
I'm both true magic and a lie.
Been given life I throw away.

There's nothing in this world that makes me want to stay.

Are you gonna stay

Will you run away

You'll drive away to virgin lands.

And go down south where you can't see me.
A place where all the wild things are...


Tell them a story that will make 'em sleep.
Break all their spirits if it isn't sunday.
Will you be there when they throw me down

Will you be one of the thousands singing...

Oh Ooooh Oooooooh


"Finish what you start" is what they say.
With me, it is a struggle every time.

I'm off the bounds. I'm wide awake.
I rather live one breath than slowly fade away.


Oh, and I'm singing oh

Oh Ooooh Oooooooh


You had me confined.
Took away my pride.

Now look at what you've done.
The monster I've become


Defiant here we stand
Nothing can complicate us
We smash what comes our way

We're made of what you left be

We rule across the virgin lands.

We go down south where you meet your limits.
Will you be there when I throw them down
Will you be one of the thousands seeking...


The place where all the wild things are


Embrace the fact that now wild things we are
