North Dakota
The Wooden Sky

Leaving this town headed south boundnThe car full of narcotics, some cheap cocainenAnd we cut our losses in North DakotanWhere it's true they name their streets all after thievesnWe kept our eyes locked on the bordernAnd one hand on the wheelnAnd kept us to the rightnWe never got no further south boundnWe left those wheels to spin us right through the nightnAnd we set fire to both our pathsnnFollowing lights you'd left to guide us soon became a borenWe lit those flames and made our ownnAnd left those lights to burn behind usnIn the dark I finally see that I'm alonennWe won't heed no call to armsnAnd we won't heed no call at allnnThrew ourselves into the waternJust trying to keep our bodies warmnHoney we've been here beforenWe made mistakes just as our fathers before usnTrying to drag our legs behind us back to shore
