Album: The Great Divide

When I was waddling & the world was bright & new
My daddy filled my head with tales of derring — do My momma held me & said «Child, you are free
Go where your heart leads you & be what you would be»
So I’m trying to move along
But confined to this maze I’m just running in place
They say it’s all part of the game
One — hundred or one — thousand or one — million miles to go Not sure where we’re headed, cause the map’s been shredded
The wheels ain’t holdin' in the hammering snow
Slipping & sliding but we’re never dividing
'Til you find us fractured on the rocks below
Cork your yellin' 'cause the facts ain’t jellin'
With the lessons you taught us so long ago
So now I’m strollin' & there’s nothin' much thats new
My daddy shakes his head «Kid doesn’t have a clue»
Momma shrugs & says «He'll find his way somehow»
I never was a pawn
Don’t plan on starting now
Moonlight kisses that wink along the way
Like daydreams carry me My daydreams carry me One — hundred or one — thousand or one — million miles to go Not sure where we’re headed 'cause the map’s been shredded
The wheels ain’t holdin' in the hammering snow Slipping & sliding but we’re
never dividing
'Til you find us fractured on the rocks below
So cork your yelli' 'cause the facts ain’t jellin'
With the lessons you taught us so long ago
Still trying to move along
If you remain true you risk losing it all
Survival’s just part of the game
One — hundred or one — thousand or one — million miles to go Not sure where we’re headed 'cause the map’s been shredded
The wheels ain’t holdin' in the hammering snow
Slipping & sliding but we’re never dividing
'Til you find us fractured on the rocks below
So cork your yellin' 'cause the facts ain’t jellin'
With the lessons you taught us so long ago
