Lyrics

|intro

|interlude
|---------
Never once an ocean |
could hold me on its shore |
standing calm with all its motion |
with all the movement of its flow |
cause I know way back in the distance |
all the safer sorrows burned |
the ones with no intent to drown you |
the ones where nothin's to be learned |verse
|
so now i'm headin' down a back road |
the one that no one really takes |
'cept for me now to be nowhere |
when that early morning breaks |
|---------
|interlude
|---------
Now I'm dancin' with the mad girls |
the ones who sin out by the town |
who were brought up by bell towers |
and always nurtured by its sound |
I heard them sing out in their language |
already when I was still free |
oh God I thought I heard the angels |
what kind of fool'd you put in me? |verse
|
'Cause now I'm tied by up by a back road, y'know |
the one that no one really takes |
'cept for me now to be nowhere |
when that early morning breaks |
|---------
|interlude

They sure won't let me leave this summer no no no |
and they won't let me go this fall |
and with the likelihood of winter |
they'll take the heat out of us all |
just to deliver all their daughters |
to track down sons of serpent roads |
and let me look out over slaughter |
to have a night out with the boys |verse
|
And now i'm takin' off the back road, y'know |
the one that no one really takes |
'cept for me now to be nowhere |
when that early morning breaks |
