From the recording Taking to the Road

Lyrics

 
I wrote myself a riddle
but I didn’t like what it meant
so I poured it into concrete
and made myself cement
 
taking to the road
taking to the road
taking to the road
taking to the road
 
in charcoal dreams of madness
he was a friend of mine
he tried so hard to cover
up the solid double line
 
(chorus)
 
she buried stones and heartache
on a winding stretch of sand
with one eye on the sunset
and a careful steady hand
 
(chorus)
 
it’s time for taking answers
and leaving them to waste
for all my hopes to wander
from out this silly place
