Chorus
You walked into the wild, to see if you'd survive
And I bet that you lived wild, but you never left alive

I can't forget your name or if I should follow on
I never knew you but I miss you now you're gone x2


Verse One:
Do you think Thoreau would be proud of his star student?
If I were him I'd contemplate you, and then just lose it

To live in society seems better than not at all
You gave yourself rise and then you had to fall
I could never try to answer the call of the wild


Chorus


Verse Two:
If happiness is best when shared, then why'd you go alone?
It can't have been too hard to be a brother and use the phone

But I guess every bottle had been stiffly corked
And you just never cared that your family was shocked
How did it feel to say, "And so I walk into the wild?"


Bridge:
I look for a hero in your face, I feel like I could understand

You didn't want any ties to any place, but people missed your hand
It's such a disregard for other people, whether they hurt you or they tried
To help you on an internal journey, but you just found the other side


Chorus
