Lyrics
Wilderness
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Everybody drinks the water from the murky pool
Surely as you think you're well
You know your belly aches
Everybody learns religion at the blind man's school
Will you reach for heaven
When the preacher charms the snake
Is your faith so right
Are you so blessed
Everybody wanders in the forest
Is your heart so true
Count the butts and bottles
In the morning when we're gone
Fools agree reality is more than we should bear (NOTE: this was spelled
"bare" in the printed lyrics, but that didn't seem to fit as well as
"bear".)
How do you gaze into the sun from dusk to dawn
We love the truth enough to die but we won't swear
Is your faith so right
Are you so blessed
Everybody wanders in the forest
Is your heart so true
Are you so good
Everybody wanders in the woods
Everybody begs the juror be more than merciful
For the crime we celebrate, for bigotry we learn
Everybody drinks the water from the murky pool
Surely as it heals your soul you feel your body burn
Is your faith so right
Are you so blessed
Everybody wanders in the forest
Is your heart so true
Are you that good
Everybody wanders in the woods
Everybody wanders in the forest
Everybody wanders in the wilderness
