[Verse 1 - Sims]
She sang me to sleep with my favorite song
And in the morning when I woke, the girl was gone
She didn't leave a note but she took the dogs
It's a wild world out there
And I don't blame her for the way she act defensive
Careful and pensive
Motion was suspended when she said it
Face red like a letter to the tenants
Documented like it meant it
The prices gettin' steeper every minute
Every second that ticks, I study the lips
She said we're further adrift
[?] seemin' further a myth
While we run through the flames of the cities and the hips
The news said abandon hopes
Stood on the roof and look below
Watchin' all the panicked folk runnin' like the antelopes
We cool, we know something that they'll never know
All in all we stand our own
Throwin' these dice tonight
I tell her:
[Chorus - Sims]
Calm down relax your mind
Come inside and pass some time
See the lighthouse close for the night
Baby this is wildlife
We on our own tonight
We spend our dawns runnin' with wolves
In the afternoon swimmin' with sharks, but it's dark now
And the lighthouse close for the night
Baby this is wildlife
We on our own tonight
We on our own tonight
Baby this is wildlife
We on our own tonight
[Verse 2 - Sims]
We stood and let the ashes in the wind blow in our faces
And for a second there, thought we found oasis
But those were just the waves dancin' back and forth
Playin' with the ships until they [**?**] course
We spent some time thinkin' how something so benign, could carry so much force
Lookin' at our charts
Our bodies intertwine, while we walk this line
I think I lost my mind, but she gon' find it for us
Twenty-eight days later for the past twenty-eight years shaped her
But she don't let the fear take her to the point of breakin' here
The neighbors climbin' up the walls and achin'
She said "love -- the only chance worth takin'"
[Chorus - Sims]
Calm down relax your mind
Come inside and pass some time
See the lighthouse close for the night
Baby this is wildlife
We on our own tonight
We spend our dawns runnin' with wolves
In the afternoon swimmin' with sharks, but it's dark now
And the lighthouse close for the night
Baby this is wildlife
We on our own tonight
We on our own tonight
[Outro - Sims and voice samples]
Listen!
You might find the truth, you might find a lie
Baby this is wildlife
We on our own tonight
Listen up!

Listen!
Calm down relax your mind
Come inside and pass some time
See the lighthouse close for the night
Baby this is wildlife
We on our own tonight
We spend our dawns runnin' with wolves
In the afternoon swimmin' with sharks, but it's dark now
And the lighthouse close for the night
Baby this is wildlife
We on our own tonight
We on our own tonight
Baby this is wildlife
We on our own tonight
