Burn Down The World
Adam Marsland

Daylight came creeping

Through the window and onto my face

The taste of anticipation

For a moment I couldn't trace

But now I am 22 years old

Today is the day I will hit the road

Chasing down purple mountain vistas

And none shall dare resist us

Those last goodbyes, tearful and brief

Are now dotted lines vanishing underneath

This automobile that drove us to college

And once there we never dared acknowledge

But now I am young and scared and free

With mp3s and truckers on CBs

Cheerleading our way across the U.S.A.

This is my time, this is the day

That I will drive these lanes

Flung from coast to coast

To the angel streets

To Mulholland's ghost

I impatiently wait my turn

To Burn Down The World

Daylight swallowed the east

In our rear view mirror

But we never slacked our speed

Passing blackened barns

And shipwrecked farms

Wondering if their occupants ever felt the need to escape these amber waves of pain

Via plane or boat or train

And were they now sleeping off regrets

For the destinies they never met?

And I'll haunt these roads

Like a Cockeyed Ghost

Raise a truckstop glass

To our asphalt host

This is the moment that I have earned

To Burn Down The World
