To The Wild
Embrace the Wild: Liberation from Society's Cage
Lyrics
Take all your pages
Encouragement to discard or get rid of all personal records or writings.
Set them on fire
Symbolically letting go of limitations or constraints, embracing freedom.
Take off your cage and
Break free from confinement or restrictions.
Go back to the wild
Return to a more natural, untamed state or lifestyle.
Take the new ages
Disregard new societal norms or trends.
Throw 'em on the fire
Reject contemporary ideologies or advancements.
Gonna take just that I'm made of
Embrace one's inherent qualities or characteristics.
And run into the wild
Escape societal norms and embrace an unrestrained life.
Take that old girlfriend
Suggests discarding memories or experiences associated with an ex-partner.
Set her hair on fire
Metaphorically letting go of past relationships or attachments.
Watch her start screaming
Implies witnessing a reaction to letting go, a vivid, emotional response.
And running for the water
Seeing the person react and seek relief from the intense situation.
Gonna take that old apartment
Symbolizes leaving behind familiar spaces or routines.
Set that place on fire
Letting go of past living arrangements or stability.
Gonna leave the world at large and
Abandoning mainstream society and its conventions.
Run back to the wild
Retreat to a more primal or instinctual way of life.
(Ooh-ooh)
Repetitive vocalizations, possibly serving as a rhythmic or emotional emphasis without explicit meaning.
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
-(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
-(Ooh-ooh)
-(That's alright, that's okay)
Acceptance of circumstances, being fine with the consequences.
(I can look the other way)
Willingness to ignore or overlook certain things or situations.
(A couple of sticks and a couple of stones)
Minimal possessions or resources are sufficient for a simple life.
(I'll dig a pit and lay my bones)
Being ready to settle down and embrace a chosen path or destiny.
