Be Wildered

[Silence]

[Instrumental, Electric Guitar, Acoustic Guitar, Bass, Drums, Piano, Organ, Synth]

[Intro]

[Instrumental Intro: Quirky Electric Guitar, Bouncy Bass, Tight Drums, Hammond Organ Stabs and Curious Synth Motif]
[Spoken Vocal]

Bewildered?

(Good.)

That means
there’s something
(… you could)

[Verse 1]
When the answers don’t come easy
And the picture isn’t clear
Don’t run away from questions
Let curiosity appear

A puzzle on the table
A riddle in the air
The stranger something seems to be
The more you want to stare

Don’t settle for the simple
Don’t settle for the sure
The question keeps you moving
Mystery is to explore

[Refrain]
Bewildered
(Seek the answers)
Be wildered
(Mind dancers)

… find the answers…
(See curiosity)
Be wildered!

[Chorus]
Be wildered!
(Be bewildered!)

Let your mind run free

Be wildered!
(Be bewildered!)

[Verse 2]
The Earth can keep you guessing
The weather changes fast
A pattern may look certain
Until the pattern doesn’t last

So when the pieces shift
And the old ideas collide
Don’t close your eyes and call it noise
Go see what rises with the tide

[Instrumental]
[Electric Guitar Solo: Playful Progressive-Rock Lead With Hammond Organ, Syncopated Bass, Drums and Synth Countermelody]

[Bridge]
(Set the pace)
… the space
Between the question…
(The suggestion)

[Rap Vocal Break]

Be wildered!
(Be bewildered!)

Wild your mind
(Wild your mind!)

Leave the easy answers
Far behind

Find why!
(Go… try!)

Ask when!
(… then…)

Ask what happens
If we try again

Curious!
(Curious!)

Serious!
(Serious!)

Maybe being puzzled
Makes us wiser

Turn it round
(Turn it round!)

Begin
(Look again!)

New game
(New name)

Let the knowing…
(Get growing)

[Breakdown]
[Music Drops to Acoustic Guitar, Bass and Soft Piano]

Bewildered…

[Whispered]

Seek the answers.

Be wildered…

(One with the mind dancers)

[Soft Response]

Mind dancers.

[Pause]

Find the answers…

[Whispered]

See curiosity.

[Build]

Be wildered!

[Final Refrain]
Bewildered
(Seek the answers)
Be wildered
(Mind dancers)

… find the answers…
(See curiosity)
Be wildered!

[Outro]
[Instrumental Outro: Full Band Groove With Guitar, Hammond Organ, Bass, Drums and Playful Synth; Gradually Stripping Down to a Single Repeating Guitar Note]

What’s the answer?
(Find the dancer)
[Pause]

Inside of you

[Spoken, fading]
(Knew point of view)
About to find out.
