Wild at Heart

He sat and thought for a while about the good old days
All he recalled now was a smile and how’d she say
Remember when were young and the world was in our hands
Madly desirous of the ones who burn burn burn
Take my hand I’ll lead you to mountains far and wide
The valley where we saw the band, now we pray the man won’t die
We’ll waste the hours again out on the open road
The vast countryside not as vast as out minds
Now Go oh oh oh she said
You’re Wild at heart
Now Go oh oh oh she said
You’re Wild
The sun will rise again and enlighten your heart
The distances and spaces between won’t seem as far
We’ll sit and think for a while about the good old days
Recalling every smile and all the things we used to say
Now Go oh oh oh she said
You’re Wild at heart
Now Go oh oh oh she said
You’re Wild, Wild
You’re Wild at heart

Tides

When the tide recede
You’ll be in my wake
When my heart receives
Confess my mistake
When I hide away
All of the pain
My pride outweighed
I could not sustain
Owww
Owww
Owww
Owww
When the tides have turned
You’ve been set free
From the lines ashore
Into The sea
We were young and dumb, in love
We were young and dumb, in love
We were young and dumb, in love
We were young and dumb, in love

Gorgeous Desire
02:57
|

Her and I we want to get away
The American dream just ain’t for us
Desert roads, atomic gasoline
Thrills, sex and lust
Wild youth snares our hearts
And pulls us from the city
Small town nowhere passes us by
And the road it keeps us steady
Your gorgeous desire makes me invincible
Her and I we fought the moon
Battled through the night
Waking eyes in the sunrise
And I’m just closing mine
Her and I we want to get away
The American dream is such a pity
Living out the rest of our lives
So beautiful and pretty

I am known to you
You are in it too
It’s in your face
I watch your eyes trace
The spherical shape of the moon
I remember you
The way young minds do
So sweet, divine
As you cross the line
Between knowing and believing
Don’t leave tonight
I can’t resist when you shine bright
Don’t leave tonight, tonight
I sense in you
A fear of the truth
There’s a light in the dark
I try so hard to be
Brave and bold
Don’t leave tonight
I can’t resist when you shine bright
Don’t leave tonight, tonight
Don’t leave tonight
I can’t resist when you shine bright
Don’t leave tonight, tonight
Don’t leave tonight
I can’t resist when you shine bright
Don’t leave tonight, tonight

Heavyweight
04:27
|

Take the punch, let it out
Feel your face hit the ground
Hear the crowd calling out
Lay your face on the ground
This heavyweight is bringing me down
This heavyweight is bringing me down
Take the corner, sit you down
Ready for the second round
The lights go up, you make a stand
You’re just waiting for the ground
Falling down, slowly now
Your last chance has come and gone
Feel the weight of the world
Crushing you to the ground

When I was young I never realised
Certain things would go away
Now I’m older and putting it together
Things no one ever wanted to say
I keep the shadows out of my bedroom
Leave the light on at night
Tell me monsters to go away and leave me
Don’t you ever come back
Now I sit here wondering aloud
Where did the wild things go?
Thought I had a little sail boat
But it’s gone
Fear is driving everything I do these days
Makes me feel so sick
Wish I could go back to adolescence
Back when passions were strong
Need to relearn things I have forgotten
Things you only know in youth
Getting tired of acting like a grown up
Know I’m child at heart
Now I sit here wondering aloud
Where did the wild things go?
Thought I had a little sail boat
But it’s gone
Where did all the younger years go?
They’re just a fleeting memory
Can I still sail in and out of weeks
And almost over a year?
Till I get to an island in the sun
Where I’m happy all the time
Will I be declared the king
When the wild rumpus begins?

When We Were Young
04:01
|

When we were young the world in our hands
A flame in our hearts, the future's unplanned
When we were young, ambition was fierce
A burning desire, dive in head first
When you and I would meet in the end
Bailin’ on something, a forgotten friend
And after all is said and done
We won’t be the only (lonely) ones
I feel it in you
I believe in you
In you
When we were young, at home in the night
Rock ’n’ roll music, was our one true fight
You were the whisper in the back of my head
Though all the years, never mislead
I feel it in you
I believe in you
In you
I feel it in you
I believe in you
In you

Tragic Nostalgia
04:36
|
|||
I’ve been having a hard time
Getting this off my chest
I don’t know how to say
I don’t know you any - more
Feels like yesterday we were
Singing and having fun
Now we’re growing old
Our hearts melting in the sun
And I don’t feel fine anymore
And I don’t feel fine anymore
Dreams and aspirations
Took a toaster in the bath
Feel I’m fighting for air
When I know I’m just trying to laugh
Skin on my knuckles is growing
Whiter every day
From holding so god damn tight to all the
Things that slip away
Remember when we were young and the
World was in our hands
We could light up a room and have a
Line up out the door
Now I’m all alone and
Lamenting my last breath
Like I never knew the power and
Beauty of my youth
Still holding on to
One last ounce of life
Stuck in the past where my
Heart feels at home
With a burning desire and a
Tragic Nostalgia

Jared Adams Winnipeg, Manitoba
On Jared Adams’ upcoming LP, Mystic Humanism, creative instincts roam. Hook-fuelled with baroque and indietronica flavouring, Mystic Humanism’s early 2000s-inspired alt-rock presents the Winnipeg singer-songwriter’s hot takes on the now: the metaverse, AI’s takeover, and earth’s unsteadying balance; urging the importance of stepping back and reassessing, even when it’s hard. ... more
