Wilderness · letra

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
