- Let's Get Out of the World

 

"I belong in the World!"
If you think "the wild world" is a place you must open doors to see,
Interrupt the floorboards, make a fire on your bed,
Put arms through windows,
and tell me again:
"I belong in the World"

If you think the black above you will "disappear" into the night,
Then just sit and wait, the black night will come,
Find yourself invisible, and then try to tell me again:
"I Belong in the World"
If you think going camping will undo a long life of slow dying
Then go ahead, go camping.

Try to forget in the meadow, try to forget on the hill.
Try to forget, and then tell me again:
"I belong in the World"
If you think the howling wolves that live outside the city gate
Will keep you from tasting the permanent snow
That forever awaits on the distant peak
You will keep yourself hostage,
And your own dog will bite you,
And the wolves will raise you to the summit
And you'll live and taste and say:

"Let's get out of the world!
Let's get out of the romance!"
