Man in the Wilderness


Man In The Wilderness

Another year has passed me by
Still I look at myself and cry
What kind of man have I become?
All of the years I've spent
in search of myself
And I'm still in the dark

'Cause I can't seem to find
the light alone
Sometimes I feel like a man in the wilderness
I'm a lonely soldier off to war
Sent away to die -
never quite knowing why

Sometimes it makes no sense at all
Ten Thousand people look my way
But they can't see the way that I feel
Nobody even cares to try

I spend my life
and sell my soul on the road
And I'm still in the dark
'Cause I can't seem to find the light alone

Sometimes I feel
like a man in the wilderness
I'm a lonely soldier lost at sea
Drifting with the tide
Never quite knowing why
Sometimes it makes no sense at all
(I'm alive)

Looking for love I'm a man with emotion
(And my heart's on fire)
I'm dying of thirst in the middle of the ocean
I'm alive!
