The Arcadian Wild – The Graduate lyrics
When you were younger, you dreamed of being tall
But you discovered growing up just leaves you feeling small
While you were sleeping everything changed at once
You woke in the morning, stepped into the stinging light of dawn

You are wandering through the wild
You are wondering if and when you’ll reach the other side
Weighed down by a heart of stone
Bound to a body of broken bones
Fragile and feeling alone
But the whole story hasn’t been told

When you were younger, you saw all the world was yours
But you don’t have the same eyes and you cannot believe that anymore
You studied the pieces scattered around the room
Failing is fruitful, so long as we do not forget to move

We are wandering through the wild
We are wondering if and when we’ll reach the other side
Weighed down by our hearts of stone
Bound to these bodies of broken bones
We carry such similar loads
Turns out we are not alone

We could cling to comfort, content to run in place, frozen ‘cause we feel the cost
But how could we expect to find where we ought to go, unless we get a little lost

We are wandering through the wild
We are wondering when, not if, we’ll reach the other side
We share a heart of gold
We are a body of broken bones
When were we ever alone?
Together we’ll make our way home
