[Verse 1]
At the shoreline in a snowstorm
I was baptised like a newborn in the static
There was a voice inside a dream
Said "lift your head up, come up clean in the static

[Chorus]
You were a wild thing
Pretending to be tame
I was a wild thing
Trapped inside a cage
I wasn't looking for deliverance
When you walked in from the wilderness
I was yours and you were mine
But everything returns on time to the static

[Verse 2]
Though the circuit boards erased
Flashes of memories still remain in the static
In between the ones and zeroes
You will find me if you let go in the static

[Chorus]
You were a wild thing
Pretending to be tame
I was a wild thing
Trapped inside a cage
I wasn't looking for deliverance
When you walked in from the wilderness
I was yours and you were mine
But everything returns on time to the static
