I’m going out to the Great Highway
Where I can almost see the stars
And then surrender to abstraction
When the road is closed to cars

Without the constant flow of traffic
It has begun collecting sand
You get the sense that Mother Nature
Has regained the upper hand

This is wild land
This is wild land
Forces we will never govern or withstand
This is wild land

There have been accidental drownings
When people exercise their right
To go out swimming in the ocean
All alone and late at night

This is wild land
This is wild land
Reassess your expectations, what you planned
This is wild land

Strangely, I feel safer after dark
When fellow travelers seek refuge in the park
But I take comfort in the wind
I’m elemental and second-skinned

I tend to navigate by instinct
Or by the blinking traffic light
That has been stripped of all its meaning
But is never black and white

This is wild land
This is wild land
I accept that I may never understand
This is wild land
Wild land
