[Intro]
I know you don't want to see
I know you're not part of me
But you wonder just the same
So I'll let you in on this game
[Verse]
What's on the top is just the beginning
Of the protectorate that keeps Gaia spinning
It never ends, and with the gifts Luna sends to the apocalypse
On, we defend for the right to live in a perfect world
For our past mistakes, extinction we are hurled
Trying to make amends for the Impergium
As Weaver and the Wyld and a bitch called the Wyrm
[Chorus]
You don't wanna know
All the power of the Wyld that runs through me
Yet the reason why is an answer that eludes me
You don't wanna see
Our viewpoint on what hominids are doing
That black inside when frenzy is brewing
You don't wanna feel
The sorrow that my heart holds in knowing
Just where my hopes and dreams are going
I won't let you be
Caught up in a war that you are not part of
I sign this letter, "Your father, with love"
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
I'm tryna set my mind free
I'm sorry you never knew me
My soul is in recession
Painful to make this confession!
[Chorus]
You don't wanna know
All of the power of the Wyld that runs through me
Yet the reason why is an answer that eludes me
You don't wanna see
Our viewpoint on what hominids are doing
That black inside when frenzy is brewing
You don't wanna feel
The sorrow that my heart holds in knowing
Just where my hopes and dreams are going
I won't let you be
Caught up in a war that you are not part of
I sign this letter, "Your father, with love"
[Outro]
Love!
