[Silence]<\/p>\n
[Arrangement: Fast-tempo hard-rock with a steady traveling beat, chiming guitars, and a chorus that feels like staring at a road sign with no destination left on it]<\/p>\n
[Intro]
\nOne more mile
\n(Or so you swear)
\nOne more sign
\n(Points nowhere)<\/p>\n
One more turn
\n(Into the glare)
\nFrom there to where?
\n(From there is nowhere)<\/p>\n
[Verse 1]
\nYou left behind
\n(What used to be)
\nThe flooded porch
\n(The dying tree)<\/p>\n
The road washed out
\n(The field gone bare)
\nSo now you\u2019re headed
\n(From there to where?)<\/p>\n
With half a tank
\n(And nerves pulled tight)
\nA trunk of clothes
\n(And one long night)<\/p>\n
A paper map
\n(That tears too fast)
\nAnd no clear sense
\n(How long this lasts)<\/p>\n
[Chorus]
\nYou’re going
\n(From there to where?)
\nNot knowing
\n(How far we are)<\/p>\n
Still moving
\n(Without a prayer)
\nFrom there to where?
\n(Totally unaware)<\/p>\n
[Verse 2]
\nThe shelter\u2019s full
\n(The rent too high)
\nThe next town says
\n(Just pass on by)<\/p>\n
The border shifts
\n(The rules don\u2019t care)
\nSo tell me now
\n(From there to where?)<\/p>\n
The kids fall asleep
\n(In the backseat heat)
\nThe dashboard glows
\n(With no retreat)<\/p>\n
And every mile
\n(Costs something more)
\nWhen every road
\n(Leads to closed doors)<\/p>\n
[Refrain]
\nFrom there
\n(To where?)
\nFrom loss
\n(To where?)<\/p>\n
From home
\n(To where?)
\nFrom here
\n(To where?)<\/p>\n
[Bridge]
\nDisplacement isn\u2019t
\n(One straight line)
\nIt loops and doubles
\n(Back through time)<\/p>\n
A flood, a fire
\n(A failed crop year)
\nA move, return
\n(Then disappear)<\/p>\n
And every answer
\n(Comes too late)
\nWhen maps are drawn
\n(By market fate)<\/p>\n
You keep on driving
\n(Because you must)
\nToward some place
\n(That still has trust)<\/p>\n
[Instrumental]
\n[Clean guitar solo]
\n[Organ swell]
\n[Drum build]<\/p>\n
[Final Chorus]
\nYou’re going
\n(From there to where?)
\nNot knowing
\n(How far we are)<\/p>\n
Still hoping
\n(There\u2019s someplace there)
\nFrom there to where?
\n(No time to stop and stare)<\/p>\n
You\u2019re running
\n(And still nowhere)
\nFrom there to where?<\/p>\n
[Outro]
\nOne more mile
\n(Or so you swear)
\nOne more sign
\n(Points nowhere)<\/p>\n
One more turn
\n(Into the glare)
\nFrom there to where?
\n(To totally unaware)<\/p>\n
