There's a light shining from another shore Rolling through the fog There's a cold wind blowing through my back door And the firewood's almost gone The snowfall bent the ceiling beams And melted through the cracks So I'm gonna shoot these windows out And paint these mirrors black I've got no place I can run I've left no sin left undone Out of the wilderness Out of the wilderness Tell me how does it feel When you come out of the wilderness I got lost on the way to town The winter froze my feet I went to grab my compa** But my compa** would not read So I stumbled through the forest And I thought that I was cursed I've been abandoned and I've been saved And I don't know which is worse I'm gonna shed this crown of thorns Feel like a baby being born Out of the wilderness Out of the wilderness Tell me how does it feel When you come out of the wilderness Tell me how far am I from the kingdom Tell me how far am I from the kingdom From the kingdom I'm gonna sleep down on that shore And I won't feel troubled no more Out of the wilderness
