Are we on the lonely side
Say oh now the past long away
Are we so lost in the dark of our hearts
That there's no light of day
No oh oh oh
No oh oh oh

Somebody left the gate open
You know we got lost on the way
Come save us a runaway train
Gone insane

How do we how do we not fade
How do we how do we how do we not fade away
How do we how do we oh

Into the wild
How are we living living living
Into the wild
How are we living living living

Wooohooo

Hey
Hey

Oh please believe me I'm more scared than not
That oh now this isn't the way
And please be there I can barely hang on
But oh I wait til I break
Yea eh eh eh
Yea eh eh eh

Somebody left the gate open
You know we got lost on the way
Come save us a runaway train
Gone insane

How do we how do we not fade
How do we how do we how do We not fade away
How do we how do we oh

Into the wild
How are we living living living
Into the wild
How are we living living living

Into the wild
How are we living living living
Into the wild
How are we living living living
