Dynamite Walls

Open your eyes

Put it in drive

get on the road and just go.

City lights

turn the tree lines

and National Park signs

Mountains approach

with small winding roads

and the air turns to falling snow

Miles away or just up ahead.

It doesn't matter what,

Any of us is looking for.

We'll never find it, because

It's not even there.

high beams showing

falling rock warning

construction work, slowing

The engine blazes

The elevation raises

The dynamite walls contain us

everyone's wathcing

for animals crossing

through the part of the glass

that's defrosted

Miles away or just up ahead

It doesn't matter what,

any of us is looking for

We'll never find it, because

it's not even there.

Open your eyes

put it in drive

get on the road and just go.

City lights,

turn the tree lines

and National Park signs.

Mountains approach,

with small winds in the road

and the air turns to falling snow.

The engine blazes

the elevation raises

The dynamite walls contain us
