They say it is a jungle
but I have seen no green
they call it civilization but I don t know what they mean
these buildings they surround me
just like iron bars
I cannot hear the crickets
and i cannot see the stars
and i feel like a machine
when i should feel like a man
I wanna get out of this city just as fast as I can
There s a rainbow that will lead us to the mountins
and that rainbow seems to say hello there
but as we gaze out at the summit that extends into the clouds
we are unaware of the bear
now I see country open up before me like a book
and I run out of the city just so i can have a look
I climb on top the mountain past the tree line to the snow
and i looked out at the beauty spreding out far below
and I feel like making music and I feel like singing songs
and I can t believe I waited for this long
theres a rainbow that will lead us to the mountains
and that rainbow seems to say hello there
but as we gaze out at the summit that extends into the clouds
we are unaware of the bear
my father he once told me son you will become a man
but not before you re eaten up I guess thats just gods plan
oh oh
well I had reached the peak
no higher could I climb
there was no greater love that a man like me could find
but I was not the only one to have ever gone this way
the bear was closing in now on his unsuspecting pray
AH!
I screamed out in anguish as the bear bit down on me
my eyes ran red with blood until I could no longer see
I couldn t hear the crickets
and I could not see the stars
I only felt a longing for the concrete and the cars
but i know i can t go back to the way things were before
but that s ok because I know that after death theres so much moreeeeeeee
theres a rainbow thatll lead us to the mountains
and that rainbow seems to say hello there
but as we gaze out at the summit that extends into the cloud
we are unaware of the bear
we are unaware of the bear
but the bear can smell our scent in the air
and although we have been told to beware to beware
we are unaware of the bear
