The Wilderness

I can't move
it's dark out here
full of doubt
and full of fear
just another scrap
won't amount to much
'cept never again
will I feel your touch
can you get me out of the wilderness?
can you get me out of the wilderness?
Saw the flames
little while ago
moving like a snake
through the undergrowth
I heard the boys
it got to first
calling for mother
ravaged by thirst
can you get me out of the wilderness?
can you get me out of the wilderness?
Screams only meant
for God to judge
and to ask why
he holds a grudge
for boys fighting
to make others free
Lord why you doing
this to me
can you get me out of the wilderness?
can you get me out of the wilderness?
can you let this cup pass from my lips
I don't want to die out here
burned up in the flames of hell
a wretched volunteer
What good to love
with this in store
lock me up
I'll kick down the door
but my legs are gone
shot all away
here I fell
and here I'll stay
can you get me out of the wilderness?
can you get me out of the wilderness?
can you let this cup pass from my lips
I don't want to die out here
burned up in the flames of hell
a wretched volunteer
