lyrics

these days are burning
the cars are still humming
we'll be filing all the highways
in straight lines

how will you choose
to spend your time
when you're withering beside
those dotted lines

all that land
all that air
all those people
stirring there

into the woods we wonder
"when we goin under?"
following the river
to the noon day light

all that land
all that air
all those people
stirring there

of time and of the river
did it teach you anything?
of god and law
and love and these thoughts of you

these days are burning
like the cigarettes i'm bumming
withering beside
those dotted lines

how can i convince you
this country's slipping into
one big abyss
you've gotta own your shit

all that land
all that air
all those people
stirring there

of time and of the river
did it teach you anything?
of god and law
and love and these thoughts of you

of time and
of time and of the river
of time and
of time and of the river
