From Into The Wild

Lyrics:

On bended knee is no way to be free
Lifting up an empty cup I ask silently
That all my destinations will accept the one that's me
So I can breathe

Circles they grow and they swallow people whole
Half their lives they say goodnight to wives they'll never know
Got a mind full of questions and a teacher in my soul
And so it goes

Don't come closer or I'll have to go
Owning me like gravity are places that pull
If ever there was someone to keep me at home
It would be you

Everyone I come across in cages they bought
They think of me and my wandering but I'm never what they thought
Got my indignation but I'm pure in all my thoughts
I'm alive

Wind i my hair I feel part of everywhere
Underneath my being is a road that disappeared
Late at night I hear the trees they're singing with the dead
Overhead

Leave it to me as I find a way to be
Consider me a satellite forever orbiting
I knew all the rules but the rules did not know me
Guaranteed

  • Crime: Rape

    Victim: Replay Button

    Christopher Johnson McCandless (Alexander Supertramp) is my hero. RIP

  • What a beautiful voice he has. It's deep and warm, i love his emotion. Fits the movie perfectly too.

    By the way you guys, i really dont mean to bother you or anything, but i did a ukulele cover of this song. So if you got 3 minutes or so, check it out if you want, its Mathieu Saikaly in the responses (or on my channel). I really tried to put my heart in it, for its a song i particularly appreciate. Anyway, that would be great :). Thanks!!
