lyrics
Used to work from 9 to 5
like it was only way to live my life.
Briefcase by my side
I ran all around for my dimes
As the time passed me by
Couldn’t wear anymore my suit and tie
So who’d ever knew
how our nature took me where I should be…
No more stress unless
the winter breaks my nest
I am finally where I should
I start my new life in the woods
You might think I’m a fool
but it’s the way of life I will choose
I can sing alone my blues
I can make and break my own rules
In case you didn’t know
I used to be just like you
so ain’t it kinda cool?
How our nature keeps me where I should stay…
No more stress unless
the winter breaks my nest
I am finally where I should
I start my new life in the woods
I’m a natures child
I’m a man in the wild
In my quest
to hunt and survive
It’s a constant fight
with every nerve alive
with every cell derived
from the beast I have inside
I perform my rites
at the brink of night
Once again I’ll dine
by the bonfire where I…
…I can play my flute
along to swiss of aspen leaves…
What would you do if the system went down?
Could you offer anything in a primitive world?
How long do you think this era can last?
Why waste precious time on all that trash?
Come and join me throw away those vanities
Let’s give them real purpose in the pit of the flames
" Deep in the woods
far from city light
a cavalcade of stars fill the sky every night
life is good as the fire burns bright
not a single useless commodity in sight
wait - that's not my flute in the pyre, right!? "
No more stress unless
the winter breaks my nest
I am finally where I should
I start my new life in the woods
