Stephen Schwartz - Lost in the Wilderness lyrics

[ABEL] Here we are your grateful children Please accept our sacrifice May you hear us and forgive us Bring us back to paradise [CAIN] All these years of this cruel joke The best harvest going up in smoke Praying for a future from these silent stony shelves How much more of this must we take This is the morning we finally make a future for ourselves! [ABEL] But Cain if it's God's will [CAIN] Is it God's will or have we all been conned Brother we will never know We will never grow If we never go Beyond I never made this world, I didn't even lose it And I know no one said it was fair But they had a garden once They had the chance to choose it They gave it away including my share And now we're lost in wilderness Lost,crying in the wilderness And if anyone's watching it seems they couldn't care less We're lost wilderness You follow all the rules You swallow all the stories And every night you wish on a star Dreaming your day will come, trusting in allegories And every morning boy look where you are Lost in the Wilderness Lost, slowly dying in the wilderness With no chance of living boy, until you confess You're lost in the wilderness Don't you ever watch the eagle fly to the sun And wonder how he got to be so free If you ever have you know your journey's begun Hey what've we got to lose boy, when already we are Lost in the wilderness And where we are headed boy, I couldn't guess but Off we go without a warning Running as we hit the ground Where our future lies a-borning Where our hearts are outward bound Till one bright and distant morning We may stop and look around And there in the wilderness Finally we'll be found!
