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 watching
 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
