Be Thankful

You fought your way into the folds

a wilderness you made your own

Where everything was a ride

and passed into a haze

When nobody wants you to stay

Darling you should be thankful

For all your time in the wild

Taught you how to swim

It's pretty late in the game

But now you see what it stood for

A nucleus to the last

And that will never change

When nobody wants you to stay

Darling you should be thankful

For all your time in the wild

Don't be sorry

No more entry to the woods alone

Walk away from where your leaves have grown

So you say I'll remember everything

And never will erase it from my mind

So darling you should be thankful

Darling you should be thankful

Wring the wilderness dry

Rein it in then say goodbye

Getting blood from a stone

Never was the way

When nobody wants you to stay

Darling you should be thankful

For all your time in the wild

Don't be sorry

No more entry to the woods alone

Walk away from where your leaves have grown

So you say I'll remember everything

And never will erase it from my mind

Darling you should be thankful

You were in the wild

But now you're free to go

No longer a child

Oh there's much more to know

Made it out alive

You are now free to go

Must have been a reason why you were there at all

Must have been a reason why you answered the call

Must be for a reason you are now free to go

Darling you should be so thankful thankful

Darling you should be so thankful thankful

Darling you should be so thankful
