lyrics

Out of the Wilderness a wasteland

Before the empire times and imperial crimes
Before the commons were decreed unlawful
Home was where you built no grief or guilt
No talk of deeds and title it was not so awful

Then came the city and industry
A monetary ministry
The fall of natural history
Decreed to force the misery
Then came a concentration of
Hoarded wealth to build up nations
Never any consecration
Time to find emancipation

run to the wilderness of land

Soon I must take a chance my people to advance
And decide to forsake this world for isolation
And defend my kin from caprice and chance
Where no law or decree shall give me grief or despiolation

For I am called to the challenge of survival
And it resounds sovereign man’s revival
A place to flee the end times arrival
And start the seeds of a new world tribal
But now the water has all been tainted
A martyred world now dead and sainted
I deem this mask of war come painted
until the sacrifice has fainted

run to the wilderness of land

And they have poisoned all our bread and meat
And in the firmament gathers a pall of heat
They have taken the heart of the wilderness
And turned it a wasteland
What a terrible cheat that was spun through the ages
The charred earth smote and our cities turn cages
They have taken the heart of the wilderness
And turned it a wasteland

they turn our world a wasteland
